Re: [cdt-dev] JNI support

The verdict I think was: love to have it, but need someone to work on it. 
Mixed Java/C/C++ debugging of mixed Java/C/C++ programs is truly the Holy 
Grail for the CDT (or more likely, one of the most exciting, I have some 
others ;-).  A simple integration might be possible today if we use local 
debugging of one (say CDT) and remote debugging for the other (say JDT). 
But the killer would be to step into a native method which is likely to be 
difficult (but then I've been surprise before at how simple things can be 
with the right architecture).

So, until someone steps up to contribute this, I don't see it happening 
anytime soon.

Cheers,
Doug

Re: [cdt-dev] JNI support










I am curious.....what was the verdict on the JNI support issue with CDT ?
Is there a plan in place to provide JNI support capabilities for upcoming
releases of the CDT ? Or does CDT already support the same ?

I would also like to see "seemless" integration while debugging JNI
applications and stepping from the java to the C code debuggers if
possible.

Please let me know.

Regards,

Stepping from the java debugger to the C debugger and back would be the
ultimate.  I'll put that on the features list but it will be some time
before I get to that level of integration.

into JNI C code and vice-versa. Seems like it should be part of CDT and 
not
independent. It would be easier to develop independently at first if CDT
was extensible enough (i.e., had the right extension points and public
APIs) but I don't know if that's the case.
