RE: Gdb didnot step into the break point in class constructor in RH 8.0

["Ramadass, Ramanathan" <Ramanathan dot Ramadass at spirentcom dot com>]

I think this is your problem;

According to http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/download/ANNOUNCEMENT

"When gcc 3.x compiles a C++ constructor or C++ destructor, it generates
2 or 3 different versions of the object code.  These versions have
unique mangled names (they have to, in order for linking to work), but
they have identical source code names, which leads to a great deal of
confusion.  Specifically, if you set a breakpoint in a constructor or a
destructor, gdb will put a breakpoint in one of the versions, but your
program may execute the other version.  This makes it impossible to set
breakpoints reliably in constructors or destructors."

Serge,

Nope. Thanks.
