RE: [cdt-dev] DSF independent of CDT ?

Hi,
 
I agree that the DSF-GDB part need not be independant of CDT.  I would like it if we could consolidate the code
(especially for the launch).  Ken opened a bug related to this http://bugs.eclipse.org/285907
But it always comes down to what time allows.
 
As always, patches are welcome.
 
Thanks
 
Marc

I guess from my angle, DSF/GDB is fairly separate from DSF proper. I think we need to keep open the opportunity to push DSF down into the debug platform, especially as more debuggers are built on it. For example, I plan on spending a little time to see if putting Java debugging on DSF would help with JNI debugging. But that is separate from the GDB support, which probably should be allowed to be CDT specific. And for Nokia's debugger, it's really whatever you want to do with it.

Just my thoughts...
Doug.

Hi, Pawel and Marc,

I remember DSF was originally design with one intension of not being dependent on CDT, thus DSF launch delegates are not derived from AbstractCLaunchDelegate, and DSF/GDB has its own copies of launch config tabs (such as CMainTab and DebuggerTab) instead of deriving from those in CDT.

Now as DSF being moved into CDT, I'm wondering if we still want to keep the independency ? Or is it better we consolidate those code ? For instance we in Nokia added  a feature in CDT and now  we have to kind of copy the code to EDC (the new DSF based debugger) unless we change the LaunchDelegate inheritance tree.

Thanks.
