Revision as of 23:00, 6 February 2010
Email discussions (February 2010) about the CDT's default debugger integration has led to the fact that it would be nice to switch the default to DSF-GDB for Helios, but that we need to get closer to feature-parity
We also agree that new debugging features are not going to be done for CDI, so it would be good to start building momentum for DSF-GDB so as to get more contributions and get the whole CDT debugging to continue getting more new features. This will also benefit any DSF-based integration as DSF will be given more attention.
So, we are attempting to resolve the feature-parity bugs tagged [cdi]. This page documents which bugs are still open and if anyone has offered to tackle them.
Contents
Total list of bugs for feature-parity
List of bugs with [cdi] tag that are still open is ["https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?short_desc=[cdi];classification=Tools;query_format=advanced;bug_status=UNCONFIRMED;bug_status=NEW;bug_status=ASSIGNED;bug_status=REOPENED;short_desc_type=allwordssubstr;component=cdt-debug-dsf;component=cdt-debug-dsf-gdb;product=CDT" | here]
