[cdt-dev] Is it ok to break the build of CDT on 3.5?

[Marc Khouzam <marc.khouzam@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

with 3.6M2 platform gives us a way to have asynchronous commands.
See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=284363
Using this means that if a command is taking a long time, the UI won't hang.

As part of bug 275687 (Reverse commands block the UI thread)
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=275687
I've migrated the Reverse Debugging commands (reverse steps, reverse resume, etc)
to this new infrastructure.  Also, I moved these commands from DSF-GDB down to 
cdt.debug.ui to allow for other integrations to use them.

The problem is that if I check-in that patch, some plugins will no longer build
with 3.5, you would need 3.6M2.

I wondered what is our approach to this?
This patch is in no way urgent, but I'd like to eventually commit it.

Any guidance?

Thanks
 

Marc
