Hello,
I managed to add a write watch to my variable VarA which is an
instance of a class and it works fine following instructions here:
http://wiki.freepascal.org/IDE_Window:Breakpoints
But actually I would like to watch when a field inside the class is
modified. Any way to do that? I tried setting the variable to watch as
VarA.MyField but it doesn't work =/
Is it possible somehow? I wonder how this works, will it stops at all
variables which are valled VarA? There is not enough information to
establish a particular one, I guess...
I am searching for a memory corruption, so I would like to breakpoint
when a code writes into a variable ...
What type is the field?
It works here.
Couple of points:
- You must use "global" for scope. Unless your object var "VarA" is a
global var).
Otherwise "varA" will go out of scope, and gdb has no idea there are
other refs to the object.
- You must delete, and create again, after every run. In order to work
around gdb scope of VarA the IDE translates the expression to a pointer.
That may not be valid on the next re-run
- You can only set the watch, if all vars involved are in scope: e.g the
ide can show the value in watches window
Otherwise: logfile please
