RE: [cdt-dev] Re: Interaction between perspectives.
|
Vitaly,
Do you display the stack frames for Java and C/C++ code under the same
thread? And is there a need to introduce additional perspectives? The
idea of the Debug perspective in Eclipse is to host all debug sessions
regardless of the type and language.
By the way, as far as I know you are using the Harmony JVM as a backend
debugger for Java, what is your backend for C/C++?
Thanks,
Mikhail Khodjaiants

Ramesh,
We are working on the mixed Java/JNI debugger supporting currently Java
and C/C++ languages. It is being integrated into Eclipse IDE under the
Debug perspective. Currently, we are able to set and stop on line
breakpoints in both Java and C/C++ code. Depending on what stack frame
is active, we are able to watch Java and native data - variables, their
values. It works in the ordinary debug perspective.
Probably, (two or more) separate percpectives for each debug-info
representation might be introduced, but at this moment there are no
well-defined vision of this.
