Release: Conveniently browse, deactivate and reactivate halts and breakpoints with the HaltManager

Hello,

I have developed a package to assist developers managing their halts and
breakpoints: HaltManager.

HaltManager provides a window showing all the breakpoints and halt
messages of the system, and allows one to toggle them on/off with a
simple click. Halt messages can also be toggled via source code
rewriting. The deactivation/reactivation feature is available in all
code browsers, not only in the HaltManager window.

It is available here, with installation instructions and pictures:
https://github.com/dupriezt/HaltManager

Feedback welcome.

Cheers,
Thomas Dupriez

Hi Thomas,

nice project.

Maybe “deactivate by metalink/rewriting” is too technical?

Juraj

Thanks. :)

I think "rewriting" has to be there to indicate it changes the source
code and recompiles the method, which you may not want.

I agree that users don't necessarily need to now that the other
deactivation option is done with metalinks.

I could replace "deactivate by metalink" with just "deactivate" to make
it less technical and keep the "deactivate by rewriting" as is.

Cheers,
Thomas

Thanks Thomas and you put screenshots so this is cool.
I have a simple question
if there is only a self halt in the code why you propose to change metalinks?

HaltManager proposes the deactivation by metalink even on self halt
because you may want to deactivate the halt without changing the source
code and completely recompiling the method.

Ok I see quite sophisticated. I did not have the time to check. Did
you explain this in the class comments?
Tx thomas.
