Schedule

• 9:30 start
• 9:30 - 11:00 New look at Launch (Presentation & Discussion) Alena Laskavaia
  • Alena presented experiences/limitations with the existing launch support
  • Discussions on the LaunchBar
    • Integration with traditional launching not complete: recent launch list should be the same
    • Play button gets confused with Resume too easily
    • Terminate gets confused with older Terminate but does not do the same thing.
      • Association of terminate with selected launch in launch bar is not always obvious
      • Should we not have a LaunchBar Terminate? What if you are not using the Debug view?
    • Choosing a launch config will select the launch mode. Is that what the user wants?
    • To choose the default target, should we use the latest target, or the target last chosen for the selected launch config?
    • How to handle attach in a user-friendly way?
    • Visual Studio only allows one session at a time. We find that too limiting although it does simplify the UI
• 11:00 - 12:00 Light weight build model (Demo & Discussion) Doug Schaefer
  • Doug presented the work he has been doing on Arduino (and the new build model)
  • Content assist works before compiling for Arduino
  • The build is user-triggered
    • Doing the build at project creation slows down project creation and causes codan to show errors until the build is done
  • We could do both: get content-assist to work before build, but still trigger the build but only try to use the build result once it is available
  • Terminal widget in the console view to show output
  • There is error parsing in the background during a build
    • Hyperlinks added to console output to jump to file (we have that already but not shown as hyperlink)
  • A preference file is used instead of a .cproject file and stored in .settings
    • No xml, which makes merges much easier
    • Is handled directly by the platform

• 11:10 - 11:55 New New Project Wizard (Demo & Brainstorming) Alena Laskavaia
• 12:00-13:30 lunch break
• 13:30 - 14:15 Remote Debugging and DSF problems (Brainstorming)
  • https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1PZ7QZeFnGxBLXF7DCAVDjtn9OeY6OS2zgPLD6Pj6vqk/edit?usp=sharing
• 14:20 - 15:05 Grouping Feature (Demo & Discussion) Marc Khouzam
• 15:10 - 15:55 CDT 9.0 work
• 15:55 - 16:15 break
• 16:15 - 17:00 CDT 9.0 work continues
• 17:00 end
