Code::Blocks 调试器：如何在逐行执行时“进入”函数？

Question

When debugging a C++ program on Code::Blocks 20.03 , I press SHIFT+F7 to step into the program, then I begin pressing F7 to go to the next line and watch variables changing in "real time".

But Code::Blocks 20.03's debugger won't enter any functions beside main , making it pretty useless, or forcing me to not use any function besides main (a bad programming practice).

How can I make Code::Blocks 20.03's debugger enter the functions too?

Answer 1

1. Set a breakpoint (red circle) exactly on the line the function main is defined;
2. Instead of pressing F8 (the same as clicking Debug->Start/Continue ), which would make the program just run until the last line and exit (only flashing on the screen before disappearing), press Shift+F7 (the same as clicking Debug->Step Into ), in order to make the debugger enter the function and not just run it completely and return its result;
3. Press F7 (the same as clicking Debug->Next line ) to keep watching the program run "step-by-step";
4. When any other function is called, and the debugger is on that line (yellow arrow), you may enter that other function too, by repeating step 2.
