Subject: Debugging in RHIDE
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi,

I discover the odd problem with DEBUGGING in RHIDE
(unfortunately i'm too stupid to use GDB :-(   )
So, when i use -O3 and -g under Windows 3.11 
some local variables are not accessible for watching
(<var name> : not available) and
some lines are not accessible for stepping into 
(There is no code generated for this line).

Info page say:
"Unlike most other C compilers, GNU CC allows you to use `-g' with
`-O'.  The shortcuts taken by optimized code may occasionally
produce surprising results: some variables you declared may not
exist at all; flow of control may briefly move where you did not
expect it; some statements may not be executed because they
compute constant results or their values were already at hand;
some statements may execute in different places because they were
moved out of loops.

Nevertheless it proves possible to debug optimized output.  This
makes it reasonable to use the optimizer for programs that might
have bugs."

Is this broblem occure due to Windows 3.11 or i'm misunderstanding
somethig important in info text?
