Better would be to actually fix it and send in a patch. :) Lately I've been having a lot of luck with late model kdbg on linux. It has a nice "break" feature that lets you break into the source once you are in the vicinity of the the bug. It helps to load up the stack, and this is best done by being in a dialog window before you "break". Otherwise the stack is pretty lean since that App will be dispatching events from the top level event loop. Once you break in under the debugger (while in a dialog window pertinent to the problem), you should see full source code. The stack trace is your friend. You can point to any caller in the stack trace, and kdbg will bring up the source code. I even have mine setup to pull up wx source code too. So I can step through full wx source code. Then you can place a breakpoint on something you want to go to. Then "run" again from there to that break point, which is invariably in some kind of event handler. The entire program is an event handler right? Pull up that code, fix it in your editor, rebuild, run it again, and send in a patch. You'll need many out of tree build dirs, I have one called build-debug, and the object files in there were built with full debugging information using CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug. I have another called build-release, this one I install and use day to day. The Debug one rarely gets installed, except when I want to run it not under a debugger but still have the asserts. > > As an additional note, the check for uniqueness is case insensitive.
