Description Anton Leherbauer CLA 2010-05-19 08:24:41 EDT 
There is currently no easy way to flush only the element state.
This request is to add a flag IVMUpdatePolicy.FLUSH_ALL_PROPERTIES which simply clears the properties from the cache and keeps the children information.

Proposal

I verified that this can be used to fix the icon update issue of bug 312817.

Just a note that (without the current patch), in bug 312817 I see that sometimes the icon gets properly updated (1 in 10 times maybe).  We must have a race condition...

And the icon is correct when I used GDB 7.0 but usually wrong with GDB 6.8.  We must be doing something wrong in the services, or maybe the events don't arrive with the same timing.

I committed the new flag to HEAD.  It is not used yet, but might be useful.
