Title: Debugging Question
Post by: GJC on September 04, 2009, 11:09:59 am

Why does the debugger stop/break at code within 'if' statements when conditions are not met.?
Hopefully i am doing something strange or incorrectly but would appreciate any help. For example
every time i run in debug mode the debugger breaks within statements that aren't met such
as

if (x==5)
{
 y++; //with a breakpoint here
}

the compiler/debugger stops everytime even tho x != 5

I'm sorry but using the following test program i was not able to reproduce your problem.

Code

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int testFunc() {
	int x = 10;
	if( x == 5 ) {
		int y;
		y = 9; //breakpoint set here
	}
	return x;
}

int main() {
    cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
    return testFunc();
}

{

}

If "x" is a float or double (so not an integer) this behaviour is correct.

Neverteheless - if you want help post the whole program so we are able to reproduce. Otherwise I can oly say: It works well for me.
