Re: [cdt-dev] What happened to pin, clone, and coloring?

In short the pin and clone feature is looking for a volunteer to contribute an updated implementation.

I've stopped working on it after implementing a the debug view breadcrumb because other priorities. The next logical step for this feature is to embed the breadcrumb viewer into the cloned variables views so that they could manage their pinned context. It may not be too hard to get this feature working, but it will be a considerable effort to get it to a point where it can be contributed to platform.

Cheers,
Pawel

I'm working on a custom DSF debugger that will need to support multiple processors.  I've seen some old proposals that would be very useful for MP support:

- processors could have a different color in the debug view (e.g., processor A could be blue, processor B could be red) and a view could be colored based on what processor it is displaying information for

- views like the register one could be cloned (i.e., you can create multiple instances of the view)

- views could be pinned to a processor context

What happened to these proposals?  I found this bug for pin and cloning:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=145635

Its status is "resolved won't fix."  Does that mean the patch won't ever get included in the official distribution of Eclipse?
