14.29 Debugging optimized code
HP WDB supports debugging of optimized code (compiled with both -g and -O) for
HP aC++, HP ANSI C and HP WDB for HP Itanium.
The following commands evaluate the name of a function and hence are affected by
the optimization level of the program being debugged (in particular, due to inlining):
•
break
•
call
•
clear
•
disassem
•
list
The following commands evaluate an expression referring to variables in the user pro-
gram and hence, are affected by the optimization level of the program being debugged:
•
break
•
call
•
cond
•
jump
•
return
•
•
set <var>
•
watch
•
whatis x
NOTE:
The break and call commands involve evaluation of both the name of a
function and an expression.
The following commands are also affected by the optimization level of the program
being debugged:
•
backtrace
•
display
•
down
•
finish
•
frame
•
info *
•
next
•
step
•
tbreak
•
rbreak
•
up
