Hello, I am using g++ (2.2.2) with gdb (4.4). I am not sure if this is the correct place to write to, however, I am quite frustrated by the problems I've had and would like to know if there is a solution to them. However, I don't quite know how to submit a formal bug report, since it is really a gdb problem I'm having. Gdb refuses to acknowledge the existence of any of the member functions and methods and operators of my defined vector classes. I can't do things like "print vec1[1]", instead I get a message like "operator not defined for this type". I can't do things like "call vec1.display()", either. "method not defined for this type". Also, I can't even "list intAVec::display", "method not defined for this type". Yet, when I do "ptype intAVec", it prints out all the declared methods and operators. If I do "whatis vec1", it correctly responds intAVec. The problem with the operator existed in version 4.2, the undefined method bug is apparently new to 4.4. I have pointed out these problems many times before to this address, and also to the newsgroup gnu.g++.help. I have never received any acknowledgement to my communications.... Anyway, if there is anything I can do to facilitate further exploration of the bug I am experiencing, please let me know. Let me know also if there is a separate place for reporting gdb problems. My decision to use g++ can only continue as long as there is a reliable debugging environment. It has been frustrating, so far.... I'm hoping, there will magically be some compiler flag that will solve all my problems. I've been using the '-g' option.... Thanks for your time, Jason Rosenberg
