Breakpoint Properties Dialog
The breakpoint properties dialog design directly affects three of the plan bugs:
- bug 360291 - Allow user to edit line breakpoint file in properties dialog
- bug 360295 - Customize property dialog for editing breakpoints
- bug 360588 - Allow user to edit all its properties prior to creating the breakpoint
The data flow in the breakpoint properties dialog is illustrated in the following diagram. Below it is a comparison diagram from the Wind River product.
The following changes should be made to CDT dialog design:
- Introduce a central preference store -
- The preference store in the properties dialog will be initialized using the raw attributes extracted from the breakpoint marker.
- Likewise, upon okPressed() the attributes from the preference store will write out to the breakpoint.
- The property pages need to be updated to read/write attributes to the preference store instead of directly to the breakpoint. Pages that support this new paradigm should use a new marker interface.
- ...in progress...
