9 Support QString of Qt 3.x.
11 Improved (and fixed) the display of arrays with repeated values.
13 Fixed crash when a file is reloaded while disassembled code is
16 Fixed parsing of stack frames involving signal handler invocations.
20 Fixed invisible toolbar under KDE 2.x (really, this time, I promise).
22 Fixed crash when no line has the cursor (empty files).
24 Don't display a blank page when a non-existing file was tried to open.
28 Fixed a special, but common case where removing a breakpoint didn't
29 work but add more on the same line instead (thanks to Ron Lerech).
31 Fixed invisible toolbar under KDE 2.1.2 (thanks to Neil Butterworth).
33 Fixed compilation for gcc 3.0 (thanks to Ben Burton):
35 Fixed make install if srcdir != builddir.
37 Changed encoding of German translations (and also Danish, Italian,
38 Norwegian, Romanian, Slovak, Swedish) to UTF-8, which fixes message
39 strings under KDE2 (at least for German - couldn't test the others).
43 Working directory can be browsed for.

46 variables window to the watch window.

63 Improved the program icon; made the installation more KDE2 compliant.
65 Enabled mouse wheel scrolling at various places.
71 Single-stepping by instruction.
73 Watchpoints. Finally! (On Linux/i386 works best with gdb 5!)
77 Made Delete key work in the watch window.
79 Breakpoints can be enabled and disabled in the breakpoint list.
81 Detach from debugged program on exit (and when new program is debugged).
83 Added a list of recently opened executables (thanks to
84 Thomas Sparr <thomas.sparr@kreatel.se>).
88 Fixed endless loop on shutdown.
90 Brought in line with KDE 1.91 (KDE 2 beta).
94 Debugging of multi-threaded programs. Requires a gdb that supports
95 multi-threaded programs, like gdb 5.
97 Debugger window pops into the foreground when the program stops.
99 Made tab width a user-settable option.
103 Display disassembled code.
107 Use the KDE system fixed font for the source code window.
109 By default, do not log communication with gdb.
111 Added an integrated output window (based on code by Judin Max).
113 Program specific settings can be set. In particular: the debugger
114 command (required if you are debugging remote devices), the
115 terminal emulation needed for the program.
119 Use docking windows thanks to Judin Max <novaprint@mtu-net.ru>.
121 Added a register dump window. Based on code by Judin Max.
123 Implemented "balloons" (tool tips) that show variable values.
125 ./configure fix for NetBSD thanks to
126 Berndt Josef Wulf <wulf@ping.net.au>.
128 There's now a Swedish translation thanks to
129 Örjan Lindbergh <orjan.lindbergh@telia.com>.

135 More adjustments for the KRASH release.
137 Show <repeat...> count in QStrings like in normal C strings instead
138 of repeating the characters.
140 Use QListView instead of KTabListBox.
144 Added a hack to set a remote target. Thanks to
145 Johnny Chan <johnnykc@iprg.nokia.com>.
147 Display function arguments. Based on suggestions by Johnny Chan.
151 Support builddir != srcdir.
155 Brought up-to-date for latest KDE 2.
159 Removal of minor misfeatures.
161 Prepared for KDE 2 and Qt 2 (it's a configure option:
162 --with-kde-version=2).
164 Added Russian documentation (thanks to
165 Ilmar S. Habibulin <ilmar@ints.ru>) and German documentation.
167 There is now a Spanish translation thanks to
168 Manuel Soriano <manu@europa3.com>.
172 Recognize strings with repeated characters: 'x' <repeats 34 times>.
174 Fix structs with no (additional) data members and other fixes
177 Save window size across sessions.
179 There is now an Italian translation thanks to
180 Massimo Morin <mmorin@schedsys.com>.
184 Fixed non-displaying QString (Qt2) with certain gdb 4.17's (at least
185 mine here, of SuSE 6.1, had a problem :-)
187 Fixed cases where gdb commands where executed after debuggee has exited.
189 Do not execute gdb commands after an interrupt.
191 Updated some translations. Still most are incomplete. Please help!
193 There is now a Polish translation thanks to
194 Jacek Wojdel <wojdel@kbs.twi.tudelft.nl>.
198 The working directory for the program being debugged can be set
199 (Execution|Arguments).
201 There's now a global options dialog in place (File|Global Options).
202 At the moment the debugger program (which must be gdb, but it could be
203 an experimental gdb version, for example) and the terminal for program
204 output can be specified.
206 Fixed Makefiles to support make DESTDIR=/tmp/foo install (which is
207 needed by packagers and to create relocatable RPMs).
209 There's now a Danish translation thanks to
210 Steen Rabol <rabol@get2net.dk>.
214 Starting with this version, Qt 1.42 and KDE 1.1 is required.
216 Ported to Qt 2.0 and KDE post-1.1! KDbg now runs with both
217 KDE 1.1 (using Qt 1.42) and the latest experimental KDE. You can of
218 course run one version and debug programs written for the other version.
220 KDbg can now display Qt 2.0's QString values (which are Unicode
223 Environment variables can be set. Changes become effective the next time
224 the program being debugged is run.
226 The breakpoint list has been improved. It disables command buttons at
227 times when it is not possible to change breakpoints. The icons that
228 show the breakpoint status are now the same as those in the source
231 Popup menus (context menus) for frequently used commands have been added
232 to the source code window (thanks to Tom Nguyen <ttomnguyen@yahoo.com>)
234 There's now a Russian translation thanks to
235 Ilmar Habibulin <ilmar@ints.ru>.
237 Internal restructuring. These changes are invisible. They just make
238 future extensions less cumbersome.
242 This is the last version that supports Qt 1.33 and KDE 1.0.
244 There's now a Czech translation thanks to
245 Martin Spirk <spirk@kla.pvt.cz>.
247 Recognize and report when gdb dies unexpectedly. This happens commonly
248 when writing CORBA programs since gdb obviously has problems in
249 debugging C++ classes with virtual base classes.
251 Added conditional breakpoints and ignore counts.
255 Added a toolbar button to load the executable. The button to open a
256 source file is still there. I hope it's clear which one does what.
258 Attaching to a running process is now possible (Execution|Attach).
260 Made more visible when gdb is busy using a gear wheel in the upper right
261 corner of the window like kfm.
263 Made the KTreeView widget more flexible by adding a bunch of virtual
264 keywords. (No, this doesn't have any influence on the look and feel of
265 KDbg.) While doing that, I fixed a small repainting bug.
268 ChangeLog starts here.
