I think I posted a patch that restores this functionality some times back to this forums. You could apply it yourself.

Where can I find the patch?  I assume it requires a rebuild of Codeblocks from source?

For the original version, please search the forums.

However, I believe meanwhile its outdated as we continued work in trunk. So I need to update it anyways. So please stay tuned... I'll post here.

And yes, it requires you to self-compile C::B which is easy.

Thank you sooooo much!  This will be a life saver to anyone who is serious in source code level debugging.

I doubt it, in the current implementation this will cause only slowness and random crashes...

alexchen:
At least we have something to work on.  Bugs can be fixed, but lack of functionality needed for a debugger to be useful will cripple the IDE and render it an editor and code compiler, not a debugger.  I was frustrated by lack of local variable display window I ended up using gdb directly.  Although it is not better but at lease I can go very low level and get the work done.
