Version: 3.0.3 (using KDE KDE 3.2.2) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: gcc3.2 OS: Linux NOTE: viewing this in a fixed font would probably make things easier to understand. A formatted version is available at: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~savoiu/kdevelop_frame_stack.html. ----------------------------------------------- This is how a backtrace is currently displayed in the 'Frame Stack' pane. While it's an informative display I find it hard to 'decypher' without careful reading. #0 Mtp_MakeHndInternal () from /home/nsavoiu/test/src/linux-gcc-32/mtplib.so #1 0x41d86e99 in Mtp_DeletesByteWord () from /home/nsavoiu/test/src/linux-gcc-32/mtplib.so #2 0x41d86558 in Mtp_CompMakeHnd () from /home/nsavoiu/test/src/linux-gcc-32/mtplib.so #3 0x41d66651 in Mtp_MakeHndEx () from /home/nsavoiu/test/src/linux-gcc-32/mtplib.so #4 0x41d925cf in Mtp_RetestAndMakeHnd () from /home/nsavoiu/test/src/linux-gcc-32/mtplib.so #5 0x41d924b7 in Mtp_RetestAndMake () from /home/nsavoiu/test/src/linux-gcc-32/mtplib.so #6 0x415ba847 in Mtp::Rehash::RetestAndMake (this=0x80708a8, cmdline=@0xbfffe190) at Mtp_Rehash.cpp:66 #7 0x400225f9 in MainHook::DoLoop (this=0xbfffe440, input=@0xbfffe220, exit_on_error=true) at MainHook.cpp:370 #8 0x40022aae in MainHook::Do (this=0xbfffe440) at MainHook.cpp:431 #9 0x4001d7be in main (argc=3, argv=0xbfffe4e4) at Main.cpp:179 #0 0x4235d967 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/i686/libc.so.6 #1 0x0804a25d in _start () My suggestion is to parse the GDB output and have a column display as the one in the 'Watch' pane. Optionally the user should be allowed to change what columns are displayed and in what order. This would allow a user to remove information that he/she does not care for. Most of the time 'function' and 'parameters' are sufficient for my needs. At the very least the user would be able to make unneeded columns very narrow.

Nope, no objections here.
Hehe, I had posted to the wrong list :)
