conditional breakpoints and inline functions

Well, things are not going as expected.

Compiler: mingw32-g++ (GCC) 3.4.5 (mingw special)
Debugger: GNU gdb 6.3 (for MinGW)

I'm trying to create conditional breakpoints based on inline functions. These are the steps:

Code:

$ gdb middle
$ break main.cpp: 14
$ condition 1 test.weight() == 12;
$ run

Problem is GDB can't evaluate inlined functions and weight() is an inlined member function. I get an error message from GDB warning me of this.

I define all my classes as this:

Code:

// START

class myClass {
   public:
        ctor;
        dtor;

        interface assessors (gets and sets);

        interface (other);

    private:
        /* ... */
};

inlined definitions go here

//END

As such, I try to rebuild the whole thing with -fno-inline. However... it doesn't work. Inlining wasn't disabled. Please tell me I don't have to remove the inline qualifier from all of my code, only to have to put it back when I wish a release build.

This is my current compile command line options:

Code:

-fno-inline -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -g3

$ condition 1 test.nonInlinedWeight() == 1

where nonInlinedWeight just calls weight. Messy though.

Yes. That's a possibility. Thanks Skorman.
Another one I thought was to macro-disable the inline string. Probably the easiest approach. Although it could mess with literal strings (not that I can remember having any with that word)

However I was hoping my understanding of the compile options was flawed and there would be more in order to force compiling with no inlining. Or maybe that I could fire GDB with some options that allowed it to evaluate inline functions.

I'm also having an hard time tracking this out as bug in either gcc or gdb. So, I'm kinda lost.
