Any idea if this support is available in some form already > in gdb 7.10 or when is it planned to be released? The status in the wiki page linked from that url is accurate. GDB nowadays builds and links in C++ when configured with --enable-build-with-cxx, though that still spews a ton of warnings. There's been constant incremental progress so we'll get there eventually. No release has been marked as the one where we'll switch to C++ as default language -- it'll get done when it's done; though the sooner the better. :-) Thanks, Pedro Alves
