[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49119] __run_test_suite__ opens several files in GUI editor

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #49119 (project octave):

This was clearly an architectural decision, although I don't know if it was
the right one.  Whenever a breakpoint is created from the command window, and
the GUI is active, the corresponding file is loaded into the editor with the
breakpoint set.

Simple test case:


./run-octave -f
dbstop ls


This behavior has been with us a while.  It goes back at least to version
3.8.2.

Is it worth changing?  Or is it kind of handy that the files you are debugging
are automatically available in the GUI editor window?
