Adding Darin to CC list as I'm not sure if this is a Debug thing, a PDE thing, or a collaborative thing. "doits" are cool and in Eclipse, scrapbook pages allow us to write random bits of code, highlight it, and then execute it. The Debug team has gone one step further and allowed us to write doits in the display pane of the Variable view and the doit is run in the context of the object that we have selected. It would be cool to take this one step further and be able to associate a collection of doits with a currently running launch configuration. This would allow the user to write handy doits and save them in (maybe?) their scrapbook page. When highlighted, it would run the doit in the context of a current running launch config. (currently we must copy the code from the scrapbook and paste it into another window before executing it) The description is a bit vague, but that just offers room for creative thinking. :-) I guess basically I'm looking for a way to store and organize my Variables view display pane doits. Any thoughts? This might make an interesting co-op project?...
EclipseShell would seem to provide this functionality, especially when combined with some of the EclipseMonkey DOMs. http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/ http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/scripts.html http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t65234.rhtml
I believe this is a Debug thing.
Not planned for 3.3
I think this is java-specific.
