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

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!

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.

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
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!

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.

Eugene
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!
