Release TPF Debugger from IBM TPF Toolkit as Java Library

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Take the IBM TPF Debugger facilities that exist in IBM TPF Toolkit 4.6 and make available to customers as a stand-alone Java library (NOT as an Eclipse plug-in). n other words, provide the Java library that is responsible for the functionality to run TPF Debugger, but in such a way that it is environment agnostic/ not the Eclipse IDE platform.

    Response from the TPF lab: We are unable to accept this idea as it is not compatible with the ongoing TPF Tooling strategy.

    In order to evaluate this idea, the IBM TPF lab needs more details on the use case and business justification for this requirement. Please describe the problem you are trying to solve.
    You might find this blog on The Guide to Good Ideas to be helpful:
    https://community.ibm.com/community/user/ibmz-and-linuxone/blogs/colton-cox1/2020/10/29/the-guide-to-good-ideas

    Is it just the default debug function you are looking for or do you also need all of the additional function the TPF lab provides in the existing Debugger set such as the various views (ECB, ECB Snapshot, ECB Summary, Trace log collection, ECB Trace, etc.)?

    What is your expected timeframe?

    Each IDE has their own UI models and are authored in potentially different languages. If you had to choose one IDE aside from Eclipse, what would it be?

    Please provide information on your build, load and test pipeline.
    What IDE is used for each of these?
