Hi, I have some problem using GCC and GDB, you know, the current GDB has
python pretty printer enabled, so that the variables can be show quite
nicely.
My problem is when gdb try to show some variable that is not
initialized. For example:
void test()
{
std::string stdStr("std::string");
stdStr.append(" value");
std::map<int, std::string> m;
m[0] = "000";
m[1] = "111";
}
If I set a breakpoint in the first line of test function, and send
command "info local" to gdb, then gdb get crashed. That is because GDB
regard every local variables are initialized,then the associated python
pretty printer code was executed. In fact, in this situation, none of
the local variables were initialized, then gdb or python may access to
some random numbers, and it get crashed.
My question is: Is there any possible that GCC can emit some debug
information to indicate that one variable is initialed or not.(at least
in the DEBUG build mode)
So that gdb can firstly check if this variable is already initialed,
other wise, it will give some tip that "this variable is not initiated yet"
