Description Winnie Lai CLA 2011-05-18 12:54:22 EDT
Build Identifier: 3.7 M7

Current actions for add/remove/edit/restore register group in registers view
assume the 'debug target' is IDebugElement and ICDebugTarget. These assumptions do not fit into dsf gdb, thus there is a need to let other cdt gdb (non-cdi) debugger based registers view to override these actions.


Reproducible: Always

Winnie, do you have some implementation of register groups for DSF?

> Winnie, do you have some implementation of register groups for DSF?

I have the concept of nested register groups. No magic - I simply allow a register group dm context can have (0..*) register group dm context on service side; and a similar concept on view model side - a group node can have a group node and a regiser node.

The hierarchy is determined by both the hardware model and the software side. The sw side is more or less making a simple grouping, say any group having >100 registers will be grouped -- nothing elegant.
After the nested group is implemented, it won't be hard to allow user driven grouping - just an extension of sw grouping logic.

Accidentally marked as fixed, 
so it's now re-opened
