just a quick question, does anyone know if its possible to set a break/watchpoint in gdb when a register points to a certain location?
i own the gdb manual, and have been playing in it for a bit and just cant seem to figure it out, is it possible?
I don't believe that could be done at all, the machine would have to
stop whenever it mov'd a value to the register so the debugger could
examine it. I don't think that's possible on Intel machines, anyway.
