Description Nikolay Molchanov 2006-07-26 20:24:05 UTC 
By default CND build disbales debugging feature, so only few developers know
how to enable it. Now it's time to enable it by defalut (i-team decision).
Comment 1 Nikolay Molchanov 2006-07-26 21:01:41 UTC 
The code, that enables debugging feature is in file GdbDebuggerModule.java:

public class GdbDebuggerModule extends ModuleInstall {
    
    private CustomizerNode debugCustomizerNode;
    private static boolean enabled = Boolean.getBoolean("gdb.module.enabled");
    
The suggested fix is to make it enabled by default, but to provide an option
to disable it:

    private static boolean enabled = !Boolean.getBoolean("gdb.module.disabled");
Comment 2 _ gordonp 2006-07-31 19:35:33 UTC 
The debugger is now fully enabled by default. To disable it you should
disable the module. I've removed the code which lets you disable via a
property.
