Class LaunchConfigurationDelegate

java.lang.Object
org.eclipse.debug.core.model.LaunchConfigurationDelegate
All Implemented Interfaces:
ILaunchConfigurationDelegate, ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
public abstract class LaunchConfigurationDelegate extends Object implements ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
Default implementation of a launch configuration delegate. Provides convenience methods for computing the build order of projects, building projects, and searching for errors in the workspace. The default pre-launch check prompts the user to launch in debug mode if breakpoints are present in the workspace.

Clients implementing launch configuration delegates should subclass this class.

    • getLaunch

      public ILaunch getLaunch(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode) throws CoreException
      Description copied from interface: ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
      Returns a launch object to use when launching the given launch configuration in the given mode, or null if a new default launch object should be created by the debug platform. If a launch object is returned, its launch mode must match that of the mode specified in this method call.
      Specified by:
      getLaunch in interface ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration being launched
      mode - the mode the configuration is being launched in
      Returns:
      a launch object or null
      Throws:
      CoreException - if unable to launch

    • buildForLaunch

      public boolean buildForLaunch(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException
      Description copied from interface: ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
      Optionally performs any required building before launching the given configuration in the specified mode, and returns whether the debug platform should perform an incremental workspace build before the launch continues. If false is returned the launch will proceed without further building, and if true is returned an incremental build will be performed on the workspace before launching.

      This method is only called if the launch is invoked with flag indicating building should take place before the launch. This is done via the method ILaunchConfiguration.launch(String mode, IProgressMonitor monitor, boolean build).

      Specified by:
      buildForLaunch in interface ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration being launched
      mode - the mode the configuration is being launched in
      monitor - progress monitor, or null. A cancelable progress monitor is provided by the Job framework. It should be noted that the setCanceled(boolean) method should never be called on the provided monitor or the monitor passed to any delegates from this method; due to a limitation in the progress monitor framework using the setCanceled method can cause entire workspace batch jobs to be canceled, as the canceled flag is propagated up the top-level parent monitor. The provided monitor is not guaranteed to have been started.
      Returns:
      whether the debug platform should perform an incremental workspace build before the launch
      Throws:
      CoreException - if an exception occurs while building

    • getBuildOrder

      protected IProject[] getBuildOrder(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode) throws CoreException
      Returns the projects to build before launching the given launch configuration or null if the entire workspace should be built incrementally. Subclasses should override as required.
      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration being launched
      mode - launch mode
      Returns:
      projects to build, in build order, or null
      Throws:
      CoreException - if an exception occurs

    • getProjectsForProblemSearch

      protected IProject[] getProjectsForProblemSearch(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode) throws CoreException
      Returns the set of projects to use when searching for errors or null if no search is to be done.
      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration being launched
      mode - launch mode
      Returns:
      a list of projects or null
      Throws:
      CoreException - if an exception occurs

    • finalLaunchCheck

      public boolean finalLaunchCheck(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException
      Description copied from interface: ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
      Returns whether a launch should proceed. This method is called after preLaunchCheck() and buildForLaunch() providing a final chance for this launch delegate to abort a launch if required. For example, a delegate could cancel a launch if it discovered compilation errors that would prevent the launch from succeeding.
      Specified by:
      finalLaunchCheck in interface ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration being launched
      mode - launch mode
      monitor - progress monitor, or null. A cancelable progress monitor is provided by the Job framework. It should be noted that the setCanceled(boolean) method should never be called on the provided monitor or the monitor passed to any delegates from this method; due to a limitation in the progress monitor framework using the setCanceled method can cause entire workspace batch jobs to be canceled, as the canceled flag is propagated up the top-level parent monitor. The provided monitor is not guaranteed to have been started.
      Returns:
      whether the launch should proceed
      Throws:
      CoreException - if an exception occurs during final checks

    • preLaunchCheck

      public boolean preLaunchCheck(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException
      Description copied from interface: ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
      Returns whether a launch should proceed. This method is called first in the launch sequence providing an opportunity for this launch delegate to abort the launch.
      Specified by:
      preLaunchCheck in interface ILaunchConfigurationDelegate2
      Parameters:
      configuration - configuration being launched
      mode - launch mode
      monitor - progress monitor, or null. A cancelable progress monitor is provided by the Job framework. It should be noted that the setCanceled(boolean) method should never be called on the provided monitor or the monitor passed to any delegates from this method; due to a limitation in the progress monitor framework using the setCanceled method can cause entire workspace batch jobs to be canceled, as the canceled flag is propagated up the top-level parent monitor. The provided monitor is not guaranteed to have been started.
      Returns:
      whether the launch should proceed
      Throws:
      CoreException - if an exception occurs while performing pre-launch checks

    • saveBeforeLaunch

      protected boolean saveBeforeLaunch(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException
      Performs the scoped saving of resources before launching and returns whether the launch should continue. By default, only resources contained within the projects which are part of the build scope are considered.

      Subclasses may override this method if required.

      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration being launched
      mode - the launch mode
      monitor - progress monitor
      Returns:
      whether the launch should continue

      3.2

    • getBreakpoints

      protected IBreakpoint[] getBreakpoints(ILaunchConfiguration configuration)
      Returns the breakpoint collection that is relevant for this launch delegate. By default this is all the breakpoints registered with the Debug breakpoint manager.
      Parameters:
      configuration - the configuration to get associated breakpoints for
      Returns:
      the breakpoints that are relevant for this launch delegate
