Description Marc Khouzam CLA 2016-03-29 13:10:53 EDT
Now that we removed CDI, users that have old CDI launch configurations would benefit from those being properly transferred to work with DSF.

What I would do is look through the different tabs of the DSF-GDB launch configuration type in question, and look for the constants used to store the info for a launch config. Then look to see if CDI used the same ID. If not, you'll have to convert from the old ID to the new one.

This converter could run when the DSF-GDB plugin is loaded, or the launch plugin.
