Re: [cdt-dev] What to do when something breaks with a new platform?

[Pawel Piech <pawel.piech@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The platform team is almost entirely staffed by IBM, and has been dwindling in size over the years.  As a result, if you'd like to get a bug fixed you at least need to provide a code snipped to reproduce the bug, and ideally a patch as well.... which means that you more less need to debug the problem to some extent yourself :-(

To make a code snippet, the safest thing is to extend a platform example to reproduce the problem.  For the command framework, look in the /cvsroot/eclipse/org.eclipse.ui.examples.contributions plugin.  If you don't have any luck, let me know and I'll also try to debug this.

Cheers,
Pawel

Hi,

 

When I run 3.5M5, the DSF-GDB 'Connect' button is the debug view is disabled

but in the popup menu, it is enabled (in a attach launch).

I tried the same code with 3.5M4 and I don't see the problem.

 

So, either I have a bug that 3.5M5 brought out or there is a bug in 3.5M5, no?

 

I'm not sure how to proceed.  I will do some debugging, but how deep within

platform must I go before I post a question?  I also have no idea which

part of platform I would report this to...

 

Thanks

 

Marc
