[Qt-creator] Nameless return values for debug mode

2015-11-16 Thread NIkolai Marchenko 
Is it possible to modify debug process to let the execution linger in the
debugged function for 1 more step to show the result created by the return
statemenet in the debug view?

This way there will be no need to create temp variables/debug statements to
debug what the actual return statement of the function produces.

Here is an example screenshot:

The result of the return can neither be seen in the locals section, nor
added as an expression.

locals and expressions only show just that: locals and expressions
When there is a chain of returns none of which assign to a temporary
variable it become hard to debug what went wrong and where without modifyng
code with qdebugs

This is a feature of the gdb engine inside creator. The cdb engine 
doesn't have that feature. I'm not quite sure about the lldb engine.
