Subject: [dsdp-pmc] PMC approval for TM
local terminal contribution
Dear
PMC,
I just entered a
CQ for the Target Management Project:
This is a
fanctastic plain contribution which has been sitting on bugzilla
for just too
long - we
need it, so please vote +1 for accepting this into
Eclipse now (more
details below).
Thanks,
Martin
PS The
details:
----------------------
This is a plain
EPL contribution, which will enable the Target Management
Terminal to be
used for local shells. In other words, you'll be able to run
your
cygwin bash, Linux
tcsh or whatever inside Eclipse in an ANSI terminal that
supports Emacs, vi
etc.
Or, you create an
"External Tool" launch config for your favorite
commandline
tool -- in the
past, the Eclipse Console could only be used for such
programs,
so if the program
required terminal control for a menu or so, you were out
of
luck. Now, such
external programs can run in a terminal.
As far as I know,
the CDT is also considering this groundwork program for
use
in I/O for
debuggees.
