| [cdt-dev] How to hook up debug to new project model |
|
Hey gang, especially Mikhail S, and maybe Ken R might have
some ideas, The next step towards a seamless new user experience for our
Windows developer base using MinGW, is to pre-populate the debug launch
configuration with the MinGW debugger settings. These settings are different than the Cygwin debugger so I
can’t just default to MinGW for the debugger. What I want to do is to
somehow specify that a given build toolchain is associated with a given
debugger. Given that in the future we’ll have multiple debugger
implementations (CDI and DSF and maybe others), I’d rather do this on the
debug side, i.e. the debugger says what toolchains it works with. So the question is, how do I tell what toolchain is being
used for the active configuration of a project. I was able to figure out how to
get the ICConfigurationDescription for a project but got stuck there. As well is the more general question on whether this is the
right approach. Ken, is there something in the new launch paradigm that I need
to consider as well. I have raised a bug report where we can capture the ideas: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=179755. Thanks,
