RE: [dsdp-dd-dev] Disassembly View Requirement
|
John,
We have two options to show mixed mode, and I don't have any strong
opinion which way is better. They both have pros and cons. If I have a
choice, than I think it will make more sense to have the current CDT
disassembly window to show address base mixed mode and have the editor
to show source base mixed mode :)
Regards,
Patrick

For what it's worth, our commercial (non-Eclipse) product supports
exactly what Samantha is describing. You can have the memory window
display disassembly, or even source, and even mixed disassembly+source.
Whether this is a hard requirement for us, that's a different story.
I don't know how disappointed our existing users will be when they
are unable to do the same in Eclipse. Certainly, of paramount
importance is being able to disassemble an arbitrary block of memory.
The rest seems like a usability issue.
