It 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. + +Features: +o Inspection of variable values in a tree structure. +o 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. + KDbg can also display Qt 2.0's QString values, which are Unicode + strings. +o 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. +o 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! +o Debugging of core dumps, attaching to running processes is possible. +o Conditional breakpoints. |
