Re: [platform-debug-dev] Handling of 'Cancel' button in LCD

[Darin_Wright@xxxxxxxxxx]

There is no way to disable the cancel button. However, if you do not abort your launch by checking the progress monitor, it will not be cancelled. Thus, you can safely finish the task without being cancelled. It just means you will not provide responsive feedback to the user (depending how long the task takes).

Darin, Joe,

I was just wondering if I need to run a task which is not allowed to be
interrupted. Is there an easy way for me to disable a 'Cancel' button in
the
Launch Configuration Dialog?

I didn't see anything apparent in the IProgressMonitor class.

Thanks,
Vadim.

I had replied to this earlier, but apparently the mail transition ate it.
For an example of this in action, see
org.eclipse.jdt.internal.launching.JavaLocalApplicationLaunchConfigurationDelegate.launch

).

Launch delegates are responsible for handling the cancel button. A launch
delegate is passed a progress monitor, and the delegate should regularly
poll the monitor to see if it has been cancelled. When cancelled, the
delegate should perform any clean-up and return.

I don't seem to recall any discussion on this subject and therefore decided
to ask this question in the list.
I also did not find much documentation about handling of 'Cancel' button.
If there is some, please point
me to it.

I wonder whether individual launch configurations need to handle the
processing of 'Cancel'
button in the LCD. If they do, what is the API?
My launch configuration delegates sometime performs 'final checks' that do
take significant
amount of time. In this case, 'Cancel' button is shown in the LCD. However,
it is not clear to
me what the effect of clicking on this 'Cancel' button is. Does framework
take care of it or
should I do some processing in my code.
