Subject: Watchpoints with condition
Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2007 16:25:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200711301925.20196.vladimir@codesourcery.com> (raw)


GDB presently allow a watchpoint to have a condition, and I wonder
what are the use-cases for that.

If anybody has used watchpoint in condition in practice when debugging
real problem (as opposed to just playing with gdb, or making up
possible uses), can he share why it was needed?
