Re: [cdt-dev] catchpoints design

[John Cortell <john.cortell@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The debugger should try to avoid that as much as possible, but I 
don't see how that's always doable. What if an Eclipse installation 
has two CDT debuggers in it. One supports catchpoints, one doesn't. 
The user should be able to set a catchpoint before he launches a 
debug session. How do you filter in that case? You don't know which 
debugger the user is about to invoke.

Now, if the user only has one debugger installed, and it doesn't 
support catchpoints, then I would expect that action to not be available.
