Build Identifier: When using the TCF Eclipse Breakpoint view to set a breakpoint, if one sets a breakpoint on a function name that cannot be resolved, then when looking at status in the breakpoint properties, there is an explicit error message indicating that the breakpoint could not be planted because the identifier is undefined. This gives insight to the user about the root cause of the error. When setting a breakpoint on a source line number and the source line cannot be found or path mapping is not correctly set (e.g.) then no error is reported in the breakpoint properties status entry, the only message that can be seen is "Not planted". This message provides very limited information on the error and users do not easily understand what's going on. As a user, I would expect to see an error message like this one: "Error: Unknown source line" Eugene, let me know if you agree on this and I will start working on a fix in the agent. Reproducible: Always
I agree, a better error message would help.
