RE: [cdt-debug-dev] Registers View format

Hi Brent,
 
> The values should default to hexadecimal, and be displayed in fixed-width, right-aligned text;
 
There is a global preference "C/C++" -> "Debug" -> "Default register format" for it. If there are presentation problems, please submit a bug for the Eclipse Platform project.

 > There should be a Refresh option to see the Clock register changes;
 
There have been discussions on how to apply various update policies for the views, but I haven't heard of it for a long time. Please, submit an enhancement request for CDT.

> If a register is only 32 bits, it shouldn't display a 64-bit value (0xffffffff...value...);
 
This is a part of a bigger problem. We need more information from the target to present it's registers in the right way, but this information is not available from gdb.
 
Regards,
Mikhail

Subject: [cdt-debug-dev] Registers View format

(Not sure if this is the right forum for this question...)

I have some users who want these changes in the Registers View:
    The values should default to hexadecimal, and be displayed in fixed-width, right-aligned text;
    There should be a Refresh option to see the Clock register changes;
    If a register is only 32 bits, it shouldn't display a 64-bit value (0xffffffff...value...);

Since org.eclipse.debug.internal.ui.views.registers extends VariablesView, would these changes also affect that view, or could they be made specifically to the registers view?  Thanks,
