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
• print
• 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
