[bt-devel] help debugging bibletime..

[Mark Lybarger]

I'm not sure what you mean by having debug code in the app?  I see lots 
of qDebug statements through out the application, but what i would like 
to do is set a breakpoint to be able to examine variables, etc.  A 
little more than the trusty cout/printf statements.  I am using the 
debug item in the Kdevelop menu to run the application.

To be more detailed, From the C++ tab in Kdevelop, I select a few lines 
of code to toggle a breakpoint.  I left click in the left hand margin 
seems to toggle breakpoints.  From there, I select "Debug -> Start". 
This appears to compile any changes needed for the build.  When that's 
done, I select "Debug -> Run", and the application seems to start (i'm 
assuming this is the debug mode?).  One the bottom view, I notice the 
"Breakpoint" tab has my breakpoints listed, but they say
"Pending add > breakpoint at 
..../bibletime/frontend/searchdialog/csearchdoaloguresultview.cppp:609", 
etc, etc.

When I run the application, I would expect it to break or stop when i 
hit the line that I set a break point for, but it's not seeming to 
break.  I'm not an expert with Kdevelop, so it's probably something 
simple i've messed up.

Thanks!
Mark
