Hey all, with Unity8 on the desktop and on our devices there will be only one way to start a application. This will be done with a application launcher called upstart-app-launcher (UAL). However this will make debugging of applications impossible if the launcher has no debugging support build in.
Imagine a gdb debugger that runs somewhere in a detached process, it will just no be controllable, also when the application detaches from the starting terminal there is no way to control it directly like we need to do from QtC. I hit this problem while working on debug support for the phones, and wrote a document that summarizes how we could handle this problem: https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/d/1ODZjYjpMre2T-IFuFdBmzee4G0MRSsU4DbRkuZhts7o/edit?usp=sharing Thanks, Benjamin -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
