Interface IAddMemoryBlocksTarget

public interface IAddMemoryBlocksTarget

An adapter for an "add memory block" operation. The Memory View provides a retargettable "add memory block" action that debuggers may plug into by providing an adapter (see IAdaptable) of this type.

Clients may implement this interface.

Method Detail

canAddMemoryBlocks

boolean canAddMemoryBlocks(IWorkbenchPart part,
                           ISelection selection)
                    throws CoreException

Returns whether an add memory block operation can be performed from the specified part and the given selection.

Returns:

true if the add memory block operation can be performed from the given part and selection, false otherwise

Throws:

supportsAddMemoryBlocks

boolean supportsAddMemoryBlocks(IWorkbenchPart part)

Returns whether this target will support adding memory block from the specified part.

Parameters:

part - the workbench part to check

Returns:

true if the target wants to support adding memory block from the given part, false otherwise.

addMemoryBlocks

void addMemoryBlocks(IWorkbenchPart part,
