SDK: consider splitting of IDE and Debugger components

Open ruspl-afed opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Currently SDK Project concept proposal https://github.com/openhwgroup/core-v-docs/blob/master/program/Project%20Descriptions%20and%20Plans/SDK/sdk-project-concept.md contains the "OpenHW IDE and debugger" component.

I believe there should be separate components for "Debugger" and "IDE". The primary reason for this is that these two components requires different expertise and different facilities to be implemented. I would expect "IDE" to create "ready-to-launch" application examples for the list of supported {Boards, Toolchains, Debuggers, Libraries) and "Debugger" component to supply corresponding binaries plus connection and initialization parameters.

Thanks for this. I've split the Component 1 into two sub-components, with the following wording:

This is based on Eclipse CDT. It is divided into two sub-components:

  • The IDE component comprising "ready-to-launch" application examples for the list of supported boards, tool chains, debuggers, and libraries; and

  • The Debugger component, which will supply corresponding binaries plus connection and initialization parameters.
