[Mono-dev] Generics Sharing in the Debugger: Request for breaking the code freeze

[Mark Probst]

Hey everybody,

As I already mentioned on #monodev, my preferred solution for 2.0
would be to disable generic sharing if Mono runs with --debug.  In
that case the debugger would work fine without any further changes,
and the users would still benefit from generic sharing when they run
without --debug.  The only downside to disabling generic sharing is
that a bit more memory is used, but since this feature is new for 2.0
anyway, I don't think anybody would mind.

For 2.1 we should of course implement debugging with generic code sharing.
