| <h3>Debug UI utility classes</h3> |
| <p>The debug UI plug-in provides some classes that provide good building blocks |
| for building debugger user interfaces.</p> |
| <p><a href="../reference/api/org/eclipse/debug/ui/DebugUITools.html"><b>DebugUITools</b></a> |
| implements function commonly used by debug user interfaces:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Storage and retrieval of images on behalf of debug UI clients</li> |
| <li>Lookup of debug model presentations associated with a given debug model</li> |
| <li>Retrieval of the debug plug-in preference store</li> |
| <li>Information about the current debug view in the workbench</li> |
| <li>Information about the current program under debug</li> |
| <li>Opening the launch configuration dialog</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p><a href="../reference/api/org/eclipse/debug/ui/IDebugView.html"><b>IDebugView</b></a> |
| provides common function for debug views. It provides access to an |
| underlying viewer and its debug model presentation. Typically, clients |
| should extend <a href="../reference/api/org/eclipse/debug/ui/AbstractDebugView.html"><b>AbstractDebugView</b></a> |
| rather than implement the interface from scratch. <a href="../reference/api/org/eclipse/debug/ui/AbstractDebugView.html"><b>AbstractDebugView</b></a> |
| provides additional common functions:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Storage of actions in an action registry</li> |
| <li>Generic handling of the underlying viewer's context menu</li> |
| <li>General implementations of delete key and double click function </li> |
| <li>Mechanism for displaying an error message in the view</li> |
| </ul> |
