I think giving the user more flexibility is better, so if
it is possible to edit these attributes
at any time, it would be nice to support
it.
As you know, changing some of these attributes at any time
may cause some complexity
in CDT (e.g., changing an attribute may not be supported by
GDB and will require CDT
to delete and re-create a breakpoint with the new
value of the attribute) but I don't think this
is a major problem, as long as someone can code
that support :)

Hi All,
While working on bug 360588 I've come across a strange
problem: many of the breakpoint properties that are set during breakpoint
creation are not editable afterwards. This includes:
- Watchpoint
- _expression_
- Read
- Write
- Unit
- Function
- Event
- All
- Type: Hardware/Software/Regular
- Temporary
In order to implement the ability to edit the breakpoint on create, I make
some of these fields editable only when breakpoint is being created, however I
don't know if this is necessary. So my question is:
Are these breakpoint parameters intentionally read-only? Or should we
let the user edit them just as all the other editable parameters?
Thanks,
pawel
