A burst of commits

I’ve commited the Debug Visualization project a long ago, but the previous few days I’ve had some spare time to kill on the project. The work mostly focused on the input package, which I didn’t liked at all when I wrote it in the first time. I just didn’t have better idea. But i have now and rewrote the whole part.

I’m satisfied with the currently used approach (for now), as I’ve managed to separate different functionalities, and connect them in a simple way. Also, it is reasonably faster than before, but it still makes the eclipse lagging when the user steps the debug context, which I don’t know why (yet). Anyway, navigating in the graph, hiding/showing nodes and other display-related functions are now fast enough.

For a more detailed explanation of the new operation, see the wiki page InputPackage.

ps.: for a change as big as this, I’m thinking of a maintenance step in the version numbering (0.7.0 instead of 0.6.2), what do you think? I’m hesitating because of the lack of new features.

A diplomatervem

Hasonlóan, ahogy korábban megosztottam a TDK dolgozatomat, úgy gondoltam, most jöhet a diplomatervem is.

Ugyanakkor a módszer változott. A Scribd segítségével akár letöltés nélkül is bele lehet nézni, szóval emellett maradok.

Egyelőre több kommentárt nem fűznék hozzá, eltekintve attól, hogy sok elgépelésről tudok a dolgozatban, amit adandó alkalommal ki is javítok majd. De nem most.

New service release for Debug Visualisation

Version 0.6.0 introduced some serious regressions from the previous versions, so we decided to create a quick service release.

This release contains fixes for Stack Overflow and Hidden nodes issues, and added some minor new features as the ability to zoom the graph.

You can use P2 to automatically update your installation, or install the new version from the http://eclipse.cubussapiens.hu update site.

We are hoping, this release will be usable than the previous one.

Debug Visualisation 0.6.0 released

After many hours of work we finally managed to release a new version of the Debug Visualisation project! This release is a complete rewrite of the previous version (0.5.X), and now it is built upon the JFace API and other standard eclipse technologies instead of different custom hackings. We expect improved stability and maintainability from the new techniques, which means that we can implement more advanced features in the plugin.

Currently, the new version does not include all functionality what the old version did, but we’re sure we will manage to reach it soon. For more information about this release, please refer to the release announcement.
