Re: [cdt-dev] Re: [cdt-patch] Register View Persistence

I just have submitted a patch for this. The Eclipse 2.1 has a mechanism to
preserve the tree of the variables view. I just added a similar code to the
registers view. The patch doesn't implement the persistence between
sessions, but it prevents the collapse of the registers tree during one
session.
