Description Dodji Seketeli 2007-12-16 18:53:06 UTC 
When gdb 6.7.1, nemiver fails to let the user choose between the different overloaded functions when a breakpoint is set on one of them.

It just does nothing and indicates that the debugger is busy. The only possible action is to stop the debugger.

This is actually a regression in gdb. I have filed the bug 2387 at http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl and proposed a patch there.

You can also read about the description of the problem at http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2007-12/msg00107.html .
Comment 2 Dodji Seketeli 2009-11-22 21:36:25 UTC 
This is now fixed in recent (around version 7) GDBs. Setting a breakpoint on an overloaded function should set the breakpoint on all the overloads.
