  • CDT Summit/EclipseCon
  • Ongoing work
    • New Launch UI
      • Working solution available!
      • Ready to discuss some implementation detail

      • Main advantage is the support for multi-process
    • Trace Control Enhancements Bug 390827
      • Feature committed! See New and Noteworthy for details.
      • It would be nice to move some of the new widgets to a common area such as o.e.cdt.debug.ui
      • Was not tested on Windows. If someone can try it and report, that would be useful
    • Setting Hardware Breakpoint from the UI Bug 332993
      • new bug opened to allow to change bp type at creation or after (based on Mikhail's work) Bug 427898
      • patch posted in bugzilla but will be posted to Gerrit
      • do we need the first proposal too? It's value is to set a default type. Let's focus on first contribution and then discuss the original one.
    • Show values returned from function calls Bug 341731
      • Reviewed by Marc-Andre and updated accordingly
    • Dynamic Printf Bug 400268
      • Planned for Luna.
      • GDB 7.7 much more stable. Still some issue but not blocking

      • Patch is large but mostly a copy of Tracepoints. Important changes are much smaller.
    • Multicore Visualizer with Parallella
      • gdb stub for Parallella is being updated to provide CDT with the necessary information
      • Will be demoed at EclipseCon
    • Stand-alone CDT debugger

  • Ongoing work
    • New Launch UI
      • Progress continues
      • Single new launch config type allowing to start multiple processes together. It supports both starting a new process and attaching to one. It supports both local and remote
      • Difficulty in supporting older GDB versions. Currently based on 7.2 and higher
      • Issue with short lived processes that don't appear in the view
      • When to use 'remote' or 'extended-remote'

      • Review on-going. Meeting will held Jan 14th to discuss comments of review. Contact Marc Khouzam to join.
    • Show values returned from function calls Bug 341731
    • Mutlicore Visualizer with Parallella
      • New plugin extending multicore visualizer
      • both canvas and model have been updated for the Parallella
    • Multi-process memory views Bug 250323
      • Patch accepted, will be committed today
    • Dynamic Printf Bug 400268
    • Stand-alone CDT debugger
      • Marc K has tried it out. Looks great but a couple of comments communicated to Jeff
      • Start script will be simplified
      • "Customize perspective..." menu will be added
      • Will be shown at the CDT Summit
      • Some flags will be added to the command-line to specify launch option
      • No need to create a project or a launch config.
      • Should we still show the launch config stuff? Yes, but most won't even look at it.
      • Improvement over Insight (amongst others) of supporting the indexer through a build log
      • Planned for Luna
      • Need to discuss with Doug about how to make this available
