Re: [platform-debug-dev] Detecting variable closing

[Darin Wright <Darin_Wright@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry, there is no way to replace the
views that get created in the debug perspective - the views are intended
to be shared between debuggers. As well, the class you want to subclass
is going to change in 3.3, as it was internal provisional API in 3.2. I
would suggest to create a feature request for the problem you are trying
to solve. 

See bug 153500 to keep up with the changes
in the 'flexible hierarchy' support.

I should have being more clear about overriding VariablesView. I know how
I 
can get to the tree, and how I can install TreeListener on it. However,
I 
also need to map from tree item to the model item. There's 
AsynchronousViewer.findNode that does exactly that. Except that this method
is protected. To call it, I must create a class derived from VariablesViewer,
say CVariablesViewer.  To make CDT use that new class, I must derive
from 
VariablesView -- say creating CVariablesView, and make CVariablesView create
CVariablesViewer, as opposed of VariablesViewer. But, then, I need some
way 
to make CDT use CVariablesViewer, instead of VariablesView, and prevent
VariablesView from ever being created in C++ perspectives.

Is it possible?

Thanks,
Volodya
