debugger speed

Could the debugger speed of CB be improved?  Other ide's which rely on gdb as a backend seem to fare much better in terms of the time it takes from the moment you hit the step button to the time the arrow updates.  For example

http://www.codecutter.net/tools/quincy/

is really fast.  You can hit the step button over and over and it updates without unnerving slowness.  One of the differences is that it seems to use a less verbose gdb mode which might account for some of the sluggishness of the CB debugger, although I'd wager that profiling the gdb/debugger handling code would also have a great impact.

So, is this an area that can be improved, as it's a shame that it's so slow compared to other gdb backend ides (which are much less polished).

grv: Depends. Tell me if  there's any array scan in the debugger plugin, and i'll take out my STL swiss-army-knife in no time! :P
(After i finish revamping Codecompletion that is...  :mrgreen: )

Sometimes I regret the day when I said "Hey, why don't you use STL containers"  :lol: :lol: :lol:

mandrav:
Oh no! Please Rick, no! :lol:
I 'm still working on this plugin.

Ceniza:
C'mon thomas, you just showed Rick the light, it's not your fault if he goes blind :)
