[cdt-dev] 1.2.1/Linux-GTK Showstopper?

[Chris Songer <songer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

If you double click a register in the register view and change that 
register to an invalid value, Eclipse/CDT just exits. No prompt, no "I'm 
dying now, bye", just boom, gone.

Of course the real problem is in the SWT/GTK port, but you kind of have to 
decide how much you are willing to push on the platform when you are trying 
to get product out. Turns out this situation only seems to happen here, so 
we just worked around it with the following change to 
ChangeRegisterValueAction.java.

                        CDebugUIPlugin.errorDialog( "Setting the register 
value failed.", de );
                }
-               cleanup();
        }

Thanks!
