Heh, I don't think so. Do you really think it's acceptable to have a "non-stop" checkbox in UI that will not actually work, and find out that it does not work only when your program stops for the first time -- stopping all threads? I think this is not acceptable in any way -- regardless of how carefully and politely gdb phrases "all threads stopped, your real time application is messed up" information. - Volodya
