Subject: Assigning values to type casted vars
Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2007 07:29:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <000001c76478$30c5a1e0$02b2a8c0@insanenotebook> (raw)
Hi,
Eclipse CDT supports casting variables to a different type. This is done by
creating an MI var like this:
1466-var-create - * (int)myValue
1466^done,name="var35",numchild="0",value="1",type="int"
1467-var-show-attributes var35
1467^done,attr="editable"
The var is "editable". But in most cases GDB does report an error when
assigning a value to the var:
1472-var-assign var35 0x1234
1472^error,msg="mi_cmd_var_assign: Could not assign expression to varible
object"
The error occurs for most casts like int -> int, int -> char, char -> int,
... . It only seems to work for struct -> int, struct -> short int, ...
(most of the time).
Does this happen for reason, or should I raise a bug ?
