kdbg Description

A graphical KDE front end to the GDB debugger. KDbg is a graphical user interface to gdb, the GNU debugger. kdbg project provides an intuitive interface for setting breakpoints, inspecting variables, and stepping through code.KDbg requires KDE, the K Desktop Environment, but you can of course debug any program. Here are some key features of "kdbg": · Inspection of variable values in a tree structure. · Direct member: For certain compound data types the most important member values are displayed next to the variable name, so that it is not necessary to expand the subtree of that variable in order to see the member value. For example, you don't need to go into a variable of type QString if you want to see the string that the variable holds. (BTW, this is of course not hardcoded, but can be extended to new types.) KDbg can also display Qt 3's QString values, which are Unicode strings. · Debugger at your finger tips: The basic debugger functions (step, next, run, finish, until, set/clear/enable/disable breakpoint) are bound to function keys F5 through F10. Quick and easy. · Of course, lots of other basic functions: View source code, search text, set program arguments and environment variables, display arbitrary expressions. Everything you need to debug a program, eh! · Debugging of core dumps, attaching to running processes is possible. · Conditional breakpoints. What's New in This Release: Features: · Source code windows have now a tab attached, which makes switching source files much easier. · Source code windows now show line numbers at the left. · There are now "Find Next" and "Find Previous" commands with shortcuts F3 and Shift+F3. · Improved support of template types in the type tables (which are used to show structure members next to a structure variable). Notably, the number of elements in STL and Qt collection classes are shown. · Arguments for the debugged program can be passed on KDbg's command line. Bug fixes: · An incorrect terminal command string setting could crash KDbg if it contained format specifiers other than exactly one '%s'. · The format specifier in the memory dump window was not correctly preserved when the expression is changed. · Setting a conditional breakpoint could crash KDbg. · Using Attach on systems that use the simplified Attach to Process dialog could crash KDbg.
