Method Detail

supportsThreadControl

public boolean supportsThreadControl()

Returns whether this target supports thread control, namely whether it supports suspending/resuming threads individually.

Returns:

whether this target supports thread control, namely whether it supports suspending/resuming threads individually.

supportsPassiveVariableUpdate

public boolean supportsPassiveVariableUpdate()

Returns whether this target supports passive variable updating. If so targets will not be actively sending variable value change notification when a thread is suspended but will wait until they are asked to redisplay the value. Passive variable updating lets a CDI plugin avoid maintaining its own variable cache and having to keep it in sync with CDT's. Targets that support this feature will need to be able to detect when a variable value has changed and fire a changedEvent in its implementation of ICDIValue.getValueString().

Returns:

whether this target supports passive variable updating.

supportsRuntimeTypeIdentification

public boolean supportsRuntimeTypeIdentification()

Returns whether this target supports runtime type indentification. If so this means the type of a variable may change when its value changes.

Returns:

whether this target supports runtime type indentification. If so this means the type of a variable may change when its value changes.

supportsAddressBreaksOnStartup

public boolean supportsAddressBreaksOnStartup()

Returns whether this target supports having address breakpoints enabled when a debug session starts. If so this means address breaks will not be disabled on startup.

Returns:

whether this target supports having address breakpoints enabled when a debug session starts. If so this means address breaks will not be disabled on startup.
