Pinning of Multicore Visualizer view

CDT now supports the pinning of Multicore Visualizer views. A "pin view to debug session" toggle button was added to the Multicore Visualizer toolbar, that permits pinning a MV view to the current debug session.

A Multicore Visualizer view, when pinned, will continue showing the debug session it's pinned-on, even when another debug session is selected in the Debug view.

Pinning is most useful when used in conjunction with MV view cloning. It can be used to setup a workspace where a user can visualize what's happening with multiple debug sessions, being run in parallel.

Here's a simple example to demonstrate pinning: we have a workbench with two Multicore Visualizers views. There are two ongoing debug sessions in the Debug view; session #2 is selected, and shown in both MVs. Note that the new "pin" button is highlighted in the first MV:

Mv-pinning-1-highlight.png

We switch to session #1, and both MVs follow: Mv-pinning-2.png

We pin the first MV to session #1 Mv-pinning-3.png

We switch to debug session #2; pinned MV stays on session #1 Mv-pinning-4.png


This feature was completed August 22nd, 2014 through Bug 441713.
