Minutes
- Summary of CDT Summit/CDT Day/EclipseCon
- Java 8
- do we do it on master, it will break java 7, it should be done on the 9_0 branch
- email to the list
- cdt 9.0 for Mars+1 release (June 2016)
- 9_0 branch where API breaking changes are allowed
- Doug plans to split out native plugins into their own git repo and build them separately to provide them to others that should not depend on CDT
- CDT 8.7 plans
- Grouping feature to support
- Marc K has started looking at this again, based on the work from TI
- Memory view fixes/improvements
- Alvaro working on this
- VarObjects for Registers would be interesting.
- Currently we assume every register is under a group, but it may not be the right thing to do
- Grouping feature to support
- Enhancement bug written to LaunchBar allowing to handle multiple launches/launch group http://eclip.se/462372
- Mikhail has a patch that removes some duplications in the debug view in the case of the launch group
- Patches needing review
- A couple of breakpoint patches from Mikhail
- William submitted a patch for managed build, will email the list to get noticed

Minutes
- CDT Summit/CDT Day
- Planning continues. 10 attendees have signed up so far. Based on last year, we expect more though
- CDT 8.6 release
- Joint testing to be done
- We hope to have it done by the end of this week
- Everything is on track for the release
- Next CDT release to be 8.7
- Less than two months left until API freeze for Mars, and it does not seem anyone has plans or needs to break the API
- Doug posted to the list to see if there was any concerns about that
- CDT for Mars
- work continues for o.e.remote
- LaunchBar is being updated to follow o.e.remote new APIs
- Autotools will need to be updated as well
- Still planning on removing CDT's dependency to RSE for Mars (Remote Debug launch)
- Connections should not be part of launch configuration as connections are user-specific. Instead using an OSGI service will be better.
- FindBugs
- Marc to post a patch to enable running FindBugs and PMD as a build profile.
- We can have the nightly build use that profile and see if that proves valuable.
- This will increase the build by about 20 minutes but provide valuable feedback
- The verify job will not run FindBugs
- Visual Studio support contribution
- Guy B offered to contribute a Visual Studio integration to CDT
- Sounds like it can be interesting to some.
- Guy was asked to open a bug to discuss the contribution process

Minutes
- CDT Summit/CDT Day
- CDT Summit wiki. Please sign up.
- CDT Day planned. 7 talks on different topics related to CDT
- CDT 8.6 anything missing?
- Nothing major planned for the last week
- Register grouping committed. https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/NewIn86#Register_grouping
- VarObjects for Registers would be interesting.
- If time allows, Mikhail may have a look again.
- All Debug JUnit tests running on HIPP using all of GDB >= 7.1
- Local tests all pass: https://hudson.eclipse.org/cdt/job/debug-tests-master-all-gdb-versions/
- Remote tests down to 7 failures: https://hudson.eclipse.org/cdt/job/debug-remote-tests-master-all-gdb-versions/
- Older GDB support
- In some cases, probably with more recent GCCs, GDB 7.0 cannot step over printf (and maybe other issues)
- We discussed and approved only supporting GDB 7.1 and higher
- We won't remove the code supporting older GDBs but we won't work on making those work
- We will announce in N&N and make it part of the 8.6 review record
- SWTBot testing for Debug/CDT https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/35988/
- Proof of concept that provides one test.
- Marc K to review and commit very soon to get the infrastructure in
- LaunchBar will be part of Mars
- Doug will work on a CDT remote launch using o.e.remote
- Doug got request to have a UI for multiple launches working with the launch bar
- Launch UI
- Mikhail has started work on it again
