Before you use a nightly make sure you understand how it works.

Important changes compared to previous DEBUGGER BRANCH nightly:

* debugger_branch: applied patch dbg_refactor0019.1 with the following features:
- the watches are refreshed, when the watches dialog is shown and the debugger is running (fixes bug reported by killerbot)
- added a virtual method, so a debugger plugin can modify the context menu in the watches dialog (the SDK API is broken)
- used the new feature SDK to re-implement "dereference pointer" feature
- removed some unused member variables in the class DebuggerGDB
* all updates that occurred on trunk


Note: Watch parsing prints an error message in the watches window if the parsing fails. If you see this string please report it as a bug.

THIS IS A SPECIAL TEST BUILD OF REFACTORINGS CARRIED OUT ON THE DEBUGGER BRANCH IN OUR SVN.
FOCUS IS ON ENHANCED DEBUGGING USABILITY.

Give your feedback on this version only in this thread, don't mix it with the regular nightly please.

Once we don't have any blockers on this version,we will merge the changes into trunk and it will be part of the regular nightlies.

It is very slow when debugging :(

I go back to 6921.

What are you debugging?
What does it mean slow, what is slow, stepping, breakpoints, what?

Oops! Sorry sorry to have given so little information :(

A videogame under Windows 7, coded in C++.

Stepping. Each step is really slow. Several seconds. And sometimes (but not very often) the gdb crash when I try to check the value of a variable.

The last version (6921) does not have this problem.

PD: Thanks for your work!

oBFusCATed:
Do you have the same variables in the watches window and the same debugging windows opened (callstack, running threads)?

This is a known problem and it is not new. The only way to fix it is to rewrite the plugin using the gdb/mi interface.
I've started work on such plugin, but I've no time lately to work on it.

If you have exactly the same setup with both nightlies and the newer is slower, I'll try to fix it.
