Description Adam Dingle 2006-11-24 17:16:51 UTC
Please describe the problem:
There are several problems with commands in the Debug / Info menu:

1. The Debug / Info / Registers... command does nothing.
2. The Debug / Info / Signal to Process command does nothing.
3. The Debug / Info / Current Frame command prints out information about signals, not information about the current frame.
4. The Shared Libraries... and Kernel Signals... commands should not have ellipses ("..." characters) in their names (according to the GNOME interface guidelines, a menu item should have an ellipsis only if it requires further input from the user before it can be performed).


Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3.

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

I have destroyed most of the functionality of this menu when I have reorganized the debugger plugin. I have kept as it is just as a reminder and to keep the code. If you prefer I can hide this menu completely :) else I can try to fix most of the obvious problems too but I plan to rewrite this later.
Comment 2 Adam Dingle 2006-11-24 19:00:36 UTC
I'd rather not hide the menu completely, since most commands in it work and are useful.  I think it's pretty confusing to existing users to have menu commands which do nothing (Registers... and Signal to Process); I think we should eliminate those for now.  If we want to remind ourselves that we want to implement those commands in the future, we can always use comments in the code.  Fixing the Debug / Info / Current Frame command should be easy too.
Comment 3 Sébastien Granjoux 2006-11-24 20:13:20 UTC
Ok, I will try to improve this a bit.
Comment 4 Sébastien Granjoux 2006-11-26 17:09:23 UTC
I have correct all these, it's quite easy, and send a patch to Naba.
