Bug 10900 - Improve breakpoint properties dialog
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=10900
For this bug, I'm adding support for property pages to configure
IJavaBreakpoints. I can either add an action that will only appear on Java
breakpoints (like our current story) or I can add generic support to open the
property dialog on all breakpoints.
I'd like to do the former, because it would provide a common editing story for
all breakpoint extenders. However, it would require breakpoint contributors
to migrate their current (custom) configuration stories to the property page
framework. Personally, I'm liking the property page framework a lot better
than the custom dialog we shipped in 2.1.
First, is this considered an API change? Technically, I don't think it is. If
a breakpoint contributor didn't migrate to the property page framework, their
custom story would still work - there would just be a "Properties" action on
their breakpoints that would open a useless dialog.
Second, do we want to do this?
Thanks,
- Jared
