Description Jaroslav Tulach 2002-09-11 05:51:10 UTC 
There is a "pseudoofficial" debugger API which is
more or less project private contract between
debugger and other modules. But because a lot of
modules need to access debugging features, there
seems to be a need for real and commited
interfaces that will follow the rules and
standards common to NetBeans APIs.

Let's create new module (or more modules) that
will put API into org.netbeans.api.* and
org.netbeans.spi.* packages.

Target milestone: Promo D (see Integration plan for more info)
all info required for Architecture Review Step 1 are linked on
Debugger API homepage

This definetely needs standard review.

I think we have all the documents needed for inception review so let's
get started reviewing (step 6 in:)
http://openide.netbeans.org/tutorial/review-steps.html

Please comment. I am setting the target date for Tue 11/25.
Comment 3 Jan Jancura 2003-12-15 09:32:53 UTC 
Planned for Promo D
Comment 4 Jaroslav Tulach 2004-03-04 09:14:17 UTC 
Let's do another review of the current state, before it appears in
main trunk. I think Mar17 could be nice date. Hanzi, please prepare
materials for review week before then.
Comment 5 Jan Jancura 2004-03-04 09:38:18 UTC 
Architecture Questions document is updated in trunk.
All other documents and JavaDoc are linked form:
http://debuggercore.netbeans.org/docs/api/index.html
Comment 6 Jaroslav Tulach 2004-03-12 08:38:37 UTC 
Hanz requested change of the review date to 03-23-2004, I agreed and I
hope that it is ok for Tomas.
Comment 7 _ rkubacki 2004-03-22 13:56:05 UTC 
My expectation is that after redesign new debugger should fix
breakpoint deserialization. It should not be done eagerly during
startup but lazily on demand when debug session is started/ file
containging breakpoint(s) is edited. Is this solved?
Comment 8 Jan Jancura 2004-03-22 14:26:47 UTC 
This is not Debugger API related problem as I know.
Ant it is not addressed yet. 
We can listen on files opened in editor and add annotations on them
lazily.
Can you create a separate issue for this perofrmance problem?
Comment 9 _ rkubacki 2004-03-22 15:31:48 UTC 
Maybe it is not related to your API. You can treat #41192 as a
separate issue in such case. Anyway I am surprised that it was not
included into refactoring plan.

Review is done, the opinion document can be found at:

Comment 11 Jan Jancura 2004-04-14 15:02:24 UTC 
fixed in the main trunk
Comment 12 Quality Engineering 2010-04-29 09:11:28 UTC 
Verified ... and Closing all issues resolved into NetBeans 6.7 and earlier.
