[pdt-dev] Question about debug.daemon plugin.
|
I noticed a problem where the debug
socket listeners were not being started in some cases when PDT was first
started. It turns out that if you don't have a PHP file open or the PHP
Debug perspective being listed as an opened perspective (not necessarily
the active perspective) then the socket listeners are not started.
Looking at the code I see that the debug.daemon
(which contains the code to start the socket listeners) plugin registers
an earlyStartup, but the starting of that plugin (earlyStartup() or start()
) actually doesn't do anything, so the earlyStartup is redundent. The code
to start the listeners is actually found in the debug.core plugin in its
start() method, which means that unless this plugin gets loaded the socket
listeners won't start until it does get loaded and this can and does get
delay loaded.
The obvious answer to this would be
that as the debug.daemon has an earlyStartup registered, that this should
start the socket listeners, not the debug.core plugin and I would like
to make this change. Does anyone know why the code did it this way or is
there any good reason why it shouldn't be changed ? (An alternative would
be to have the debug.core plugin register an earlyStartup and remove the
one from the debug.daemon plugin).
I would like to get this change into
PDT 2.0.1 as well.
Cheers
