Description Andreas Nicolai 2002-04-17 13:59:21 UTC

(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kdevelop
Version:           KDE 3.0.0 
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

It would be very helpful if hitting the debug-key for "run to cursor" would start the debugger first if it is not running already.
(Background: If I simply want to check a single value during runtime setting a breakpoint and selecting "debug run" from the menue takes longer than just hitting the "run to cursor")

Thanks for that!

This is quite difficult (but not impossible), so I don't plan to do this. This 
is a case where if you really, really want it then you'll need to send me a 
patch - I'll definately add it.
