Title: [solved] how to set a loop counter for debugging?
Post by: cbuser2 on November 20, 2012, 12:45:55 pm

Hi all.

If I have a loop, how can I set a counter to process the loop X times? I don't want to manually step through the loop X times. VC++ has an option for this, so does CB also have this option? It is a very convenient way to check the values of variables after a loop has done X times iterations.

EDIT: Basically what I want to do is to set a breakpoint in(or outside) a loop with the condition that the program breaks after X iterations of the loop.

Thanks in advance.

edit breakpoint, Ignore count before break

Also, you can see this manual about conditional breakpoint: http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/gdb/gdb_34.html
