Package org.eclipse.debug.ui
Interface IDebugModelPresentationExtension
- All Superinterfaces:
IBaseLabelProvider
,IDebugModelPresentation
,ILabelProvider
,ISourcePresentation
Optional extension for an
IDebugModelPresentation
. Dynamically controls
whether labels are computed in a UI thread. The debug platform calls debug model
presentation label related methods that do not implement this interface in a
non-UI thread.
For example, some models may require at least one access in a UI thread to initialize an image registry at which point they may be able to provide labels in a non-UI thread.
Clients implementing a debug model presentation should also implement this interface to control which thread labels are generated in.
