  • Thread-topic: Source-level RunControl and value-adds
Hi Eugene,

I've got a question about whether/how source-level run control can work over a value-add. Let's assume:

	- TCF Agent "A" with just the "basic services" enabled (Memory, Registers, RunControl, Breakpoints)
	- TCF Agent "B" (a value-add) which higher-level services (StackTrace, LineNumbers, Expressions, Symbols)

Think of A as a "gdbserver" without any debug info support (just assembly-level, "bare metal" operations), and B as the "gdb" connected to it (with full debug info capabilities). B uses the context-proxy logic and the cache mechanism. The value-add services work fine as they deal with halted contexts. But is there a chance to expose a "debug-info enabled RunControl" service in B? In other words, could a client (e.g. Eclipse) connected to the B-on-top-of-A stack perform RC primitives like step-over-line and step-out?

Thanks in advance,
- Mircea
