FYI: Jump back to local variable definition line when debugging C::B source

(1/1)

ollydbg:
This is a really annoying debug experience when I debug C::B, the caret always jump back to some place and then go to the end of function end again when you step through lines (GDB next command).

I have reported in this post annoying debugging experience

This is a GCC bug Bug 49951 – [4.5/4.6/4.7 Regression] Debug stepping behavior regarding g++ Class destructor has changed for the worse starting at gcc 4.5.0. It was fixed around 2011-12-20, but the bad news is that it happened in GCC 4.8.1/4.8.2 again. (4.8.0 is not tested)
GCC 4.7.3/4.6.4 does not have such regression, so for a good debug experience, I suggest using the latest stable release of GCC 4.6/4.7 when debugging C++ applications under C::B.

ollydbg:
Since I can't post a new thread(forum database error), I reply to this old thread.

This annoying bug is fixed now!

See the link in the above post.

I hope some GCC suite will have this fix soon.
