Hello,
In our OS, one can not attach to a
process until it is running.
Since most of the processes are dynamic
in nature and have short lifespan so it is not feasible to apply a
breakpoint based on thread/process ID.
A work-around is to apply a breakpoint
based on address of the instruction and hence, the BP becomes a global
BP.
When any process hits that address first,
the execution is suspended for that process. Multiple processes can hit
the same address though and hence can be suspended.
Thus, If framework exposes the
breakpoint type say "Global Breakpoint" then Address Breakpoint is
applied and when any process reaches that address,
breakpoint is considered hit for that
process.
Do you have a scenario like this as a
Use case for DSF project or is it too typical a case?
Can new Breakpoint types be defined
using extension points in DSF ?
Thanx
Veenu
