Re: GDB/MI - var-update/create BUG

Anywhere you are.

I agree with that viewpoint

Not really, thats depends on what you are trying to achieve - since
variable object were designed to ease the task of the IDE, then I
say this is incorrect (at least to me). In my case, I actually never
want to track 'variable object' I want to track 'expressions' in the
code.

OK, but this seems quite bizarre to me, and I would not want GDB to do this by default
