Please add your CDT 3.1 plan items to this page.
The Debugger Plan Items
The 3.1 plan below is a draft in progress - input from the community is welcome.
Eclipse Debug Platform improvements
Asynchronous API
Provide asynchronous adapters for the CDT debug elements Bugzilla #106205.
Pluggable view update policies
Investigate the possibilities and advantages of the pluggable update policies feature for CDT Bugzilla #104111.
Debug context management
Investigate the advantages of the new debug context management for CDT.
CDT UI
Modules and Signals views
Replace the current viewer by the asynchronous tabletree viewer.
Signals view
Move to the gdb/MI UI.
Disassembly view
Improve the disassembly view Bugzilla #115786, Bugzilla #27239, Bugzilla #27892.
Launcher
Projectless debugging
Allow to debug executables built outside of CDT Bugzilla #39640.
CDI
Add modularity
The idea is to allow clients to contribute parts to CDI that overwrite the default implementation.
Support for modules
The modules view information should be retrieved from the backend Bugzilla #102164.
Support for symbol tables
The symbol table related information should be queried from the backend Bugzilla #91771.
Source lookup support
The list of required source files and directories should be provided by the backend Bugzilla #41529.
gdb/MI
Modified/extended gdb/MI protocols
Add an extension point to contribute command factories Bugzilla #114793.
Special launch configuration type for GDB Server
Add a separate launch configuration type for GDB Server instead of supporting it as a special debugger Bugzilla #79458.
Verbose mode for gdb console
Add an option to display the gdb trace in the console Bugzilla #113107.
Managed Build System Plan Items
Support for resources with spaces
Support spaces in the project name, sub-folder names, project resource names, and linked resources.
Tool input ordering
Support user defined ordering of tool inputs (e.g. the user can reorder the inputs to the linker to ensure link time dependencies are resolved in the proper order).
Partial builds/cleans
Support building/cleaning a single file, and compile all without linking.
DOM Plan Items
DOM Persistance (PDOM)
Persist names and bindings and anything else necessary for fast retrieval by editor and source navigation features.
Indexer and Type Cache Removal
Remove the old indexers. The PDOM provides more information than the indexers provided. Move all features that directly used the index to the PDOM, including search, class browser and type hierarchy.
Multi-Language Support
Support the adaptation of the DOM to multiple languages (at least formalize the interfaces since it is already multi-language). Ensure features that use the DOM do so in a language independent manner as much as possible.
