So, when the program reaches the line containing the call of the
BuildVcb method, and you type "step", GDB acts as if you had typed
"next" or "continue"?

If you ask GDB to "step" into a function or method that has no
debugging information, GDB will do a "next" instead. Did you compile
the file that contains the definition of the BuildVcb method with -g?
