Groups of Debug Elements (Dobrin)
This feature is dependent on: [CDT/MultiCoreDebugWorkingGroup/MultiLevelHierarchy Multi Level Hierarchy in the Debug View using DSF]
Once the debug view containers work properly we can implement Grouping of different debug contexts.
The main use case is:
The user can select multiple debug contexts in the Debug View and group them (via a context menu). A Group node will appear as parent of the selected containers. After that the user will be able to perform debug commands over the group. The command will be dispatched to all debug contexts in the group.
Additional concerns / options:
- The grouped containers may persist between debug sessions.
- Some grouping can be supported by the back end, or can be done with no knowledge of the back end.
- A debug container can belong to multiple groups.
- The user can rename the group.
- The back end can create initial groups.
