[cdt-dev] Per-element number formatting "save on exit" behaviour

[John Dallaway <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am working on an implementation of per-element number formatting for
the DSF-GDB debug views based on the PDA example code provided at:

    http://bugs.eclipse.org/202556

I have this working for the Registers view under Juno SR1 with one
issue. The per-element formats are saved only if the view is explicitly
closed by the user. If I exit Eclipse without first closing the view,
the view's partDeactivated() method is not called and there appears to
be no other reference to the view's saveViewerState() method.

Can anyone explain how "save on exit" is intended to work?
