Groups of Debug Elements
This feature is dependent on: Multi Level Hierarchy in the Debug View
Once the debug view containers work properly we can implement Grouping of different debug contexts.
The main use case is:
- The user selects 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.
