| [platform-debug-dev] use the Memory View programmatically? |
|
Hello, I have a question about how to use the Memory View in
Eclipse programmatically. I want to read/display memory for a given address
using the Memory View. So far I have been following the advice given in the
Bugzilla Bug 87374: >To programatically open the memory view: >PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().showView >("org.eclipse.debug.ui.MemoryView"); > >To add memory blocks to the view, you need to add
memory blocks to the memory >block manager: > >DebugPlugin.getDefault().getMemoryBlockManager().addMemoryBlocks(new >IMemoryBlock[] {memoryBlocks}); > >In addition to persisting the memory blocks, you
may also want to persist the >renderings that are opened. You will need to
persist the rendering id and id >of the containers in which a rendering is hosted. > >IViewPart part =
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow>(). >getActivePage().showView("org.eclipse.debug.ui.memoryview"); >IMemoryRenderingSite memoryView =
(IMemoryRenderingSite)part; >IMemoryRenderingContainer container =
memoryView.getContainer("containerId"); >IMemoryRendering[] renderings =
container.getRenderings[]; > >When restoring the renderings, you will need to
create the rendering, and add >the rendering to the appropriate container within
the memory view. > >To create a rendering: >IMemoryRenderingType renderingType =

(IMemoryRenderingSite)part; >IMemoryRenderingContainer container =
memoryView.getContainer("containerId"); >container.addMemoryRendering(rendering); > >Hope this helps... >Samantha If my IMemoryBlock implementation is correctly
implemented and I have added it with DebugPlugin.getDefault().getMemoryBlockManager().addMemoryBlocks(),
wouldn't that be enough to render it with the default
"raw" memory renderer? I could not get this to work, so I tried adding a
memory renderer to a memory rendering container, but I can not get hold of a non-null container. What
default memory rendering containers are available? My code so far looks like this (the container =
null): IWorkbenchPage page =
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage(); if (page != null) { try { IViewPart view =
page.showView("org.eclipse.debug.ui.MemoryView"); IMemoryRenderingSite memoryView =
(IMemoryRenderingSite) view; MemoryBlockExtentsion mbe = new
MemoryBlockExtentsion(new DummyDebugTarget(), 0); DebugPlugin.getDefault().getMemoryBlockManager(). addMemoryBlocks(new
IMemoryBlock[] {mbe}); IMemoryRenderingType renderingType =
DebugUITools.getMemoryRenderingManager(). getRenderingType("org.eclipse.debug.ui.rendering.raw_memory"); IMemoryRendering rendering =
renderingType.createRendering(); IMemoryRenderingContainer container =
memoryView.getContainer( DebugUIPlugin.getUniqueIdentifier()
+ ".MemoryView.RenderingViewPane.1"); container.addMemoryRendering(rendering); //
<------------- null!!! } catch ... In summary, what are the minimal steps required in
order to display a block of memory in the Memory View? - Elin Karasalo (I posted this message to the eclipse.tools.cdt
newsgroup, and was told to mail the eclipse-debug-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx mailing list. I could
not find this mailing list and am now trying this list.) |
