Re: [platform-debug-dev] [Memory View]: Changing selection in Variables

[Samantha Chan <chanskw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mikhail -

The reason for listening for selection events from the workbench and not
just from the Debug View is because I wanted the Memory View to be more
flexible and generic.  I do not want to force the view to only show its
content based on selection from the Debug View.  Although most views are
working off selection from the Debug View at the moment, there could be
cases where a view is displaying content from multiple targets.  And the
memory view could show memory blocks from these targets based on the
selection from this view.

Thanks...
Samantha

Samantha,

Is there an example why this approach is better than just to connect the
Memory view to the selection in the Debug view?

Thanks,
Mikhail
