RE: [dsdp-dd-dev] Disassembly View Requirement

[Samantha Chan <chanskw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi -

Re:  R1 Generic Disassembly View
Are we having a separate disassembly view?  Or are we looking at displaying
disassembly as a rendering in the Memory View?  Showing disassembly in the
Memory View was one of CDT's requirements.

Re:  Portable disassembly component
One of the requirements is to make showing disassembly as a portable
component and it can be "plugged" into any view or editor or anywhere we
need it.  e.g. the Modules View

Re:  Optimized code:
I think there is another requirement for dealing with optimized code.  Kirt
Beitz from Freescale indicated that they have cases where there is no
1-to-1 mapping between instructions and source code either way.  They need
to be able to show disassembly and source side-by-side, not interlacing.
They need to be able to highlight several non-contigous lines of
instructions per source line... or highlight several non-contiguous lines
of source lines per instruction.

Re:  Input to disassembly
Does it make sense to add a requirement to allow this disassembly component
to accept any input for creating the disassembly "view"?  e.g. We have
cases where it makes sense for the disassembly component to disassemble
memory from a memory block and show it as disassembly instructions.  In
other cases, we can have a binary file as input and display its content as
disassembly.

Thanks...
Samantha

Hi,

The requirement of mixed mode/assembly/source toggle is also an Editor
Subgroup requirement.  We should coordinate and work together on this.
Some of the other requirements seem relevant to the Editor as well, such as
the multiple breakpoint icons.

Thanks,
Ewa.

Subject: [dsdp-dd-dev] Disassembly View Requirement

Hi everyone,

I have updated the disassembly twiki website with the requirements that I
have gather through multiple email threads in the archive. Any feedback and
additional requirement is welcome. Additionally, I suggest that we keep one
discussion thread for the disassembly view requirement. This can be related
to the CDT disassembly view or Disassembly renderer in the Memory view.
