gdb has a bug when select "Enable GDB Pretty Printing"

[yuquan23459]

Hi, I use CodeLite 5.3 + wxCrafter 1.3 in ubuntu12.04.3,and I install its through apt-add-repository, but I find a bug in debug.
In details is: I have select "Enable GDB Pretty Pringting",if my code is single a basic stl Container， such as
vector<int> vec;
it is right and i can look the values in stl.
But if my code has not one stl container, such as
typedef struct _NodeResult {
string name;
map<string, string> attrs;
} NodeResult;
vector<NodeResult> nodes;
I can not look at the attrs when I debuging.but I debug it with gdb in terminal is normally, I do not know whether is a bug or i debuging in a wrong way? This also
appearance in codelite5.2.Waiting for response, thank you!


Oh,now I am find a way to debug Multiple contain filters，that is in debuging sense through enter "p nodes" in output panel and then click "send"，result appears.

And i find if i put the mouse on "nodes", it is not appear, so i think it is a bug, hope resove it in next version，thank you！！！

I have the same problem which seems to be a bug in GDB when a variable to inspect is not directly at the top-level. Btw I too see the correct dump when debugging from GDB's command line, so maybe there is a workaround.

Some more info that'd be useful:
- what g++ version is your code built with?
- what gdb/gdbserver versions are installed?
- what gdb debug format is used? (gstabs, ggdb, etc.)
- what does gdb output if you query it with

Code: Select all

info pretty-printer 

?
- can you inspect your variable with a CL watch that specifies the complete path to it?

Eran: does CL have its own gdb prefs, i.e. distinct from what gdb outputs with

Code: Select all

info set

from the console window? If so, would diffing the two preference sets give some clues? (I know they're gigantic).

cheers,

Hi,

The main diff is that CL is using GDB/MI and not GDB/CLI
I think its a bug in GDB - I will look further into it
