You're right that using gdb in its commandline form is not ideal for
debugging C++ code.  Using it with DDD or GVD is fine though.  Do you
know of any other debuggers?  Mainly by "the debugger" I meant that it
is there and I haven't heard of any others, aside from MS or Sun
commercial and platform-dependent tools.
