This is improved in GDB 7.0, but still not great. (gdb) complete break A:: break A::A(int) break A::getX() const break A::~A() (gdb) complete break A::A break A::A(int) (gdb) break A::A(int) Breakpoint 1 at 0x4006eb: file 519525.cc, line 12. (2 locations) Good so far. But: (gdb) break A::getX() const Function "A::getX()" not defined. Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) n (gdb) break A::getX() Function "A::getX()" not defined. Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) n (gdb) break 'A::getX() const' Breakpoint 2 at 0x4006a4: file 519525.cc, line 24. If the quotes are necessary, GDB should insert them for you; ideally they shouldn't be necessary. And: (gdb) complete break A::~ break A::~<anonymous struct> break A::~<anonymous struct>::<anonymous union> break A::~A break A::~A::A(int) break A::~A::getX() const break A::~A::~A() break A::~FILE ...
