Introduction

This page documents the activities of CDT's Multi-Core Working Group. This group aims to bring together different people from the community to jointly work on developing multi-core debugging for CDT. The group was first proposed at the CDT Summit 2010 and the suggestion was well received.

Although this effort does cover the debugging of target with multiple cores, we use the term Multi-core debugging in much wider sense. Multi-core debugging is meant to describe the simultaneous debugging of multiple cores, processes, threads, or other objects which are represented in standard debugger views.

Any one interested in helping in this effort is welcome to follow or join the group.

Conference calls

Conference calls are held on a regular basis to discuss progress, issues, features, tasks, etc.
Currently, we have conference calls every two weeks. The next call info is:

Tuesday November 30th, 2010 at 11 a.m. Ottawa time
Canada and US Toll Free - (877) 748-5444
International Numbers
Conference ID - 620 4947
Upcoming agenda and previous minutes

Features of current interest

The following is a list of features that are actively being worked on.

  1. Multi Level Hierarchy in the Debug View
  2. Grouping of debug view elements
    • DSF sees to have a limitation where it only accepts a single level of IContainerDMContext.
  3. Debug operations (step, resume) on groups
  4. Hiding of debug view elements
  5. User-selectable Debug View layouts
  6. Pin and Clone of debugging views
  7. Grid view
