What's new in this drop
Changes in the launch configuration dialog:
- To free up screen real estate for editing launch configurations, the tree of launch
configurations has been made more narrow by removing the "copy" button from the
dialog. The "new" button copies a configuration when a configuration is selected, and
creates a new configuration (based on the workbench selection) when a configuration
type is selected.
- The "Cancel" button has been replaced with a "Close" button (closing the dialog
does not cancel changes). You will be prompted to save unsaved changes.
- A "Revert" button has been added to the edit area to revert changes on the
currently selected launch configuration (under edit).
Changes to launch behavior
- Pressing the run or debug toolbar buttons launches the configuration that was last launched
(in the workspace), in the appropriate mode (run or debug).
- To create a new launch configuration, use the cascading menu items on the run or debug
menu. For example "New Configuration -> Local Java Application" - this will create a new
configuration based on the selection in the workbench (or active editor).
- "Single-click launching" preference has been removed. It was determined that a preference
which changes the behavior of a toolbar button is disorienting to the user.
Changes to ILaunchManager
- API for setting default launch configuration types has been removed.

There is no longer a Process view. The Debug view shows all debug
sessions and processes launched. When a workspace is re-started that
had a Process view open, an error message will appear explaining that
the Process view could not be created.
The debug action set has been split into two groups - debug and launch.
Existing debug and Java perspectives need to be closed and re-opened to obtain
run and debug buttons in the toolbar. @see bug 1724.
There is no longer an Inspector view - it has been replaced with an
Expressions view. When a workspace is re-started that had an Inspector
view open, an error message will appear explaining the Inspector view
could not be created.
A launch can be annotated with client specific data. @see bug 6481.
A launch can now contain more than one debug target. API has changed
in ILaunch, ILaunchListener, and ILaunchManager to suppport this.

What's new in this drop
- Procedural Debug API - new debug element interfaces have been defined to support the notion of registers,
register groups, memory blocks, and memory block retrieval:
- IRegister - a register in a register group
- IRegisterGroup - register groups are available from each stack frame (that supports registers)
- IMemoryBlock - a contiguos block of bytes from memory allocated by a running program
- IMemoryBlockRetrieval - support to retrieve arbitrary blocks of memory from a running program

What's new in this drop
- API Change - method addition - @see ILaunch.getLaunchConfiguration(). This does
not break any clients, as the only implementation of ILaunch is org.eclipse.debug.core.Launch,
which has been updated.
- API Change - method return value - @see ILaunch.getLauncher(). A launch
is now allowed to return null for #getLauncher() when it was created by a launch
configuration rather than a launcher. This does not break any clients, as launch configurations
are not in use yet. The main client that will have to be updated is the Debug UI.
- New debug preference - "Build (if required) before launch"
