<h2>12.8 Debugging bool data type</h2>

<p><em><strong>Q</strong>: How can I watch a <code>bool</code> variable with <small>RHIDE</small> or GDB? 
When I try, the debugger always displays <code>void</code><small>...</small>.</em>

<br><p>
<p><strong>A</strong>:  With the default COFF debugging format, you can't: it doesn't
support the <code>bool</code> data type.  You have to switch to stabs
debugging format; see <a href="faq12_1.html">switching to stabs</a>, for details.
