A launch mode element specifies a launch mode this tab group is specific to. A tab group can be associated with one or more launch modes. For backwards compatibility (previous to 3.0), a launch mode does not need to be specified. When unspecified, a tab group is registered as the default tab group for the associated launch configration type (i.e. applicable to all supported launch modes for which a specific tab group has not been contributed).
-
mode - identifier for a launch mode this tab group is specific to.
-
perspective - the default perspective identifier associated with this launch configuration type and launch mode. This allows an extension to cause a perspective switch (or open) when a corresponding launch is registered with the debug plug-in. When unspecified, it indicates that by default, no perspective switch should occurr.
-
description - A description of the Launch Configuration Type specific to this launchMode.
Examples:
The following is an example of a launch configuration tab group extension point:
<extension point=
"org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchConfigurationTabGroups"
>
<launchConfigurationTabGroup
id=
"com.example.ExampleTabGroup"
type=
"com.example.ExampleLaunchConfigurationTypeIdentifier"
class=
"com.example.ExampleLaunchConfigurationTabGroupClass"
>
</launchConfigurationTabGroup>
</extension>
In the above example, the contributed tab group will be shown for the launch configuration type with
identifier
com.example.ExampleLaunchConfigurationTypeIdentifier.
