Breakpoint Import Participants
Identifier:
org.eclipse.debug.core.breakpointImportParticipants
Since:
3.5
Description:
This extension point allows contributors to explicitly define how breakpoints should be compared when being imported into the workspace, and how they should be updated if a similar breakpoint already exists in the workspace.

Describes one import participant
-
participant - The class that participates in the breakpoint importing
-
type - The id of the marker backing the breakpoint type this participant cares about. For example 'org.eclipse.jdt.debug.javaLineBreakpointMarker', the id of the backing marker for the Java line breakpoint
Examples:
The following is an example of the breakpoint participant extension:
<extension point=
"org.eclipse.debug.core.breakpointImportParticipants"
>
<importParticipant
participant=
"x.y.z.BreakpointImportParticipant"
type=
"org.eclipse.jdt.debug.javaLineBreakpointMarker"
>
</importParticipant>
</extension>
In the above example the participant cares about Java line breakpoints: where
org.eclipse.jdt.debug.javaLineBreakpointMarker
is a breakpoint type defined using the
org.eclipse.debug.core.breakpoints extension point in
org.eclipse.jdt.debug
API Information:
The
type attribute is the id of the marker backing the breakpoint type this participant cares about. The type needs to be the exact marker id of the breakpoint this participant cares about, marker hierarchies are not considered. For example 'org.eclipse.jdt.debug.javaLineBreakpointMarker', the id of the backing marker for the Java line breakpoint
The
participant attribute must specify a Java class that implements the
org.eclipse.debug.core.model.IBreakpointImportParticipant interface.
Supplied Implementation:
Platform Debug supplies a default implemementation for breakpoints in general which compares breakpoints the way they were compared prior to the participant support: based on breakpoint type and line number information.
