Description Ken Ryall CLA 2010-07-30 11:18:10 EDT 
From Marc:

Hi,
 
I noticed that EDC adds two consoles to the list of consoles that can be opened at any time.
This is done using the extension point org.eclipse.ui.console.consoleFactories
 
Do we really want to do this?
First, on Linux, I probably should not see a "Windows Program Output Console", :-)
but going beyond that, is there a reason why a user would want to open
the Program Output Console when there is no EDC debug launch running?
 
I'm inclined to believe the console should only be shown by the launch.
 
Thanks
 
Marc

(this is part of a batch change)

The Eclipse CDT EDC (https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/cdt-debug-edc) is now obsolete and has not had any active development since 2011. Therefore the still open bugs are being marked as wontfix.

The git repo for the project still exists for posterity at https://git.eclipse.org/c/cdt/org.eclipse.cdt.edc.git/
