Okay, i've read the FAQ and it prob. does not solve my prob. Say you
define a function, but the source of that function is in another file,
say foo.hpp. You include this function in your main listing
(main.cxx) by using #include. From what I understand of the trace
into debugging function, when you use the foo function in the main
listing the debugger should trace into this function by opening the
source and highlighting the next executable line of code when this
function is called (naturally fromt the main function). When I use
the trace into function it does not open up the source code for any
called function, and thus the trace into function is much like the
step over function, which is no help @ all. Can you help me?
BTW, I am not trying to set break points yet.

Yes I did. But I haven't set any breakpoints in the #included'd
source nor have I declared any inline functions, so I think this
doesn't apply to me.

I think that the default directory where DJGPP looks for source code
is the folder it was intalled in - ie: c:\djgpp. What I have found,
is that if you try to compile source in a file not included in the
folder DJGPP is installed in (c:/anyfolder), you have to add a search
path so that it compiles and knows where to look for the source
(options/directories/source). ie, you have to enter c:/anyfolder into
the options so that it searches for your source file there. I was
wondering if this might be related to the debugger not being able to
find where my source is kept, and therefore I have to manually tell
the debugger where to find my source code, so that the trace into
function can open it (or something like that, do u understand?)
Thanks anyway
