Thanks Eugene,

 

Could you please review the statement I put about this on the TCF-1.4 New & Noteworthy:

https://wiki.eclipse.org/TCF/NewIn14#TCF_C.2FC.2B.2B_Debugger

and ideally add a screenshot of the new preference page ?

 

I’d also appreciate a quick note about any other new features added recently that would warrant being mentioned there.

 

Thanks,

Martin

Hi Vadi,

 

I have added preference option to enable/disable popups when application is running.

The option is in Window / Preferences / Run/Debug / Target Communication.

I also made few other minor changes to get more consistent behavior of popups.

 

Thanks,

Eugene

Hello Eugene!

 

You are absolutely right,  I think  the best approach will be  just to  give the 

ability to disable the the hoovering behavior-

Do you think such property could be added sometime soon?

 

Thank you for the fast responses!

Best Regards,

Vadi.

Hi Vadi,

 

Ability to see, for example, static variable value while application is running is very helpful sometimes, I would not give up such feature easily.

At same time, I agree, this can be too intrusive in some cases.

Perhaps, we can add a launch configuration option to enable/disable this behavior.

 

Regards,

Eugene

Hello Eugene!

 

Thank you for the quick replay!

I understand the hoovering popup behavior  can to be fixed in the Eclipse TCF side- I found getActiveFrame() method, but I wouldn't like to change TCF code, I would rather extend it..

 

Is there a way to disable  the hoovering mechanism when the program is executing without touch TCF code? is there some hook or extension point to do so? 

I think this is important because the popup stops the execution to extract the variables from the memory on the agent side  and then it resumes the execution - I don't see much benefit of such behavior, it slows the execution and rather confusing - the information is not relevant anymore when it is displayed since the execution resumes,

with that said - When the program is halted the hoover popup is very 

useful! 

 

Do you think the hoovering popup can be considered a bug? if that case 

maybe i can contribute to the TCF project and fix it myself (or just file a bug report)?

 

I will be happy to hear what you think!

 

Best Regards,

Vadi.

Hi Vadi,

 

The pop-up is implemented in org.eclipse.tcf.internal.cdt.ui.hover package.

It is extension of org.eclipse.cdt.debug.ui.editors.AbstractDebugTextHover.

 

You, probably, would have to change TCFDebugTextHover.getActiveFrame() method.

 

Regards,

Eugene

Hi all!

 

I want to disable the watch information pop-up view  when hoovering 

on a variable in the source view (only while the application is running ), 

what is the best practice to do it?

Should i take care of this on the agent side? or there is a preferable 

way to do it from the Eclipse side?

 

I am new to the TCF framework, and will be happy for a hint!

Thanks in advance! 

 

Vadi.
