I want to list all the features with the project, but I might as
well
start here.
With the plug-in alone (meaning not launched with a project system
like
VisualD), you can run an app and debug it. In that way you can
have an
end-to-end debugging session with most debugging features like
source line
stepping, breakpoints, and expression evaluation. Attaching to a
running
process is one feature that's planned but not supported yet.
Will it support gdb commands "emulation" like ddbg did? That would
be very useful for calling from an external application that already
supports gdb.
I agree that that would be a useful feature. I invite everyone to take a
look at the code and build extensions like that.
