Hi André,
thanks for the help.
You might of noticed that I made a mistake writing that thing.
Anyway I wrote another test, and actually tested it.
the source file contains:
#include <iostream>
namespace Ns {
struct A {
int i;
};
} //namespace Ns
int main(int, char**) {
Ns::A a;
std::cout << "a: " << a.i << std::endl;
return 0;
}
and the dumpers.py contains:
def qdump__Ns__A(d, item):
warn('qdump__Ns__A')
d.putType(item.value.type)
v = item.value
d.putValue("(%s)" % (v['i']))
d.putNumChild(0)
warn('loaded extra dumpers')
This is kind of adapted from the previously posted version.
Unfortunately it does nothing.
Well it does print
>~"XXX: loaded extra dumpers\n"
I just downloaded the latest version of QtCreator and tested adding the
dumpers file directly as dumpers.py in the gdb start-up script, and I also
created a dumpers.gdbinit that contains:
python execfile('/path/to/dumpers.py'). This results in the same message
being printed, so I assume it has the same effect.
Additionally I also tried to add the dumpers.py to the "debugging helper
from custom location".
This one prints nothing.
Strange since I'm sure that it worked once, when I first tried this thing.
I can't understand what is wrong.
Can you give me a hint to where you guys call the qdump__Ns__A if one is
available.
Maybe that way I can understand what is being called instead.
That would save me a bit of searching. =)
Thanks,
Paulo
