Re: [platform-dev] Support for adding multiple breakpoints in the same l

[Mickael Istria <mistria@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

See in the org.eclipse.jdt.debug.core model, it's possible to define different types of breakpoint (inspect variable change, method entry...), which are not necessarily built from a line number. And there seems to be also no strong restriction in the debug model against putting multiple breakpoints on the same line. However, it may render a bit weird in the UI at the moment, but that may not be a blocker and would definitely be something open to improvements.

For the case of adding a lambda entry breakpoint, you can probably get inspired by JavaMethodEntryBreakpoint. Once the breakpoint is defined and working as expected, another difficulty is to find a proper way to define and configure it in the UI.
