Hi there,
I just noticed there seems to be no way of debugging into a BOOST_FOREACH loop... Is that true?
I use g++ 4.3 / gdb 6.8 here and neither would the debugger stop any any breakpoint inside such loops nor can I step into them from outside. Is this supposed to be like that?
puzzled...

AFAIK BOOST_FOREACH is a macro. Therefore it is expanded by pre-processor into the real code. Can you debug into macros with g++/gdb anyway? MSVC supports that, but what about g++/gdb? There might be some workarounds, like temorary modifying the BOOST_FOREACH code and placing a debug break compiler intrinsic call into it. I think than you might be able to stop the debugger inside, but not sure what is shown than. Good Luck, Ovanes
