Subject: [Bug breakpoints/10136] New: rwatch not working when set before run
Date: Sat, 09 May 2009 18:55:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090509185516.10136.niko.sams@gmail.com> (raw)

When setting a read watchpoint for a static variable I get the error "Target 
does not support this type of hardware watchpoint." Same problem with awatch. 
watch works correctly.
$ gdb debugee
GNU gdb (GDB) 6.8.50.20090509-cvs
(gdb) l 25
20      void noop() {}
21      void foo() {
22          static int i=0;
23          ++i;
24          noop();
25          noop();
26      }
27      int main(int argc, char **argv) {
28          std::cout << "Hello, world!" << std::endl;
29          foo();
(gdb) rwatch foo::i
Target does not support this type of hardware watchpoint.

Setting the watchpoint after a breakpoint was it works:
$ gdb debugee

(gdb) break main

(gdb) rwatch foo::i
Hardware read watchpoint 2: foo::i
(gdb)                                                                                     


Gdb 6.8 works:
$ /usr/bin/gdb debugee
GNU gdb 6.8
(gdb) rwatch foo::i
Hardware read watchpoint 1: foo()::i
(gdb)
