RE: [cdt-dev] Cannot add Global variables in DSF debug session
|
"Would be nice if you same UI/model for CDI and DSF and allow user to
add customer global vars, because current way of doing it in CDI missing
some and cannot get globals from shared libraries for example..."
Agree. Globals are currently retrieved from the executable using the
associated binary parser. It should be acquired from gdb, but as with
the source lookup performance will be the problem.
Anyway, for now I'll try to make "Add Globals" visible for CDI only.

I was telling the customers too to use expression view too, but
apparently it is not this useful.
I was debbuging C code myself and switching between expressions and
variable is painful.
If I have both of them open it is overhead on debugger that would
re-evaluate all expression.
Plus this two views have different set of action. Some stuff you cannot
do with expressions view, such as change value, cast and change
format...
