I am not familiar at all with C++ debugging, so the situation is not
clear to me: To break on constructors, do you use the FILE:LINE of the
class? Wouldn't that break on destructors as well? (or any other type
specific implicit operation, if such thing exists in C++)

I'm assuming the case where a programmer wrote an explicit
constructor. In that case, you can break on it either by name
("Class::Class") or by line number (pointing at the constructor
function body).
