Bug #: 14503
Summary: Strange error message when setting a watchpoint on the
location of 'this'
Product: gdb
Version: 7.5
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: breakpoints
AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: andre.poenitz@nokia.com
Classification: Unclassified
I do not really expect setting a watch point on 'this' to be very useful, but
the the error message is strange:
Breakpoint 2, Foo::Foo (this=0xbfffee54, i=0) at
../simple/simple_test_app.cpp:335
335 b = 2 + s + t;
(gdb) watch this
Hardware watchpoint 3: this
(gdb) watch -l this
A syntax error in expression, near `const *) 0xbfffee40'.
(gdb) watch -l this->a
Hardware watchpoint 4: -location this->a
(gdb) watch -l b
Hardware watchpoint 5: -location b
(the second item)
