Re: [platform-debug-dev] extending VariablesView?
|
Darin,
The tutorial is very interesting. I might be able to do what I want with
the memory renderings, however, the source for the
example.debug.memoryview exercise is missing. I've done a quick google
and can't find it anywhere. Do you have a pointer to it?
Thanks,

In 3.2, we added experimental support for 'flexible content'. Basically,
a model can present and drive the update of any hierarchy of elements in
a debug view. However, the presentation (controls - tree/table) remains
as is. We hope to make the 3.2 support public API in 3.3. There was a
tutorial covering this material at EclipseCon 2006 - you can review the
presentation here:
http://eclipsezilla.eclipsecon.org/php/attachment.php?bugid=58.
Hopefully you are familiar with the DSDP project which is aimed at
embedded developers - http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/
