Shared library breakpoints [message #210114]

I'm using Eclipse Platform CDT Version: 3.3.1.1 on MAC OS X Leopard.

When I debug a program which loads a shared library, my breakpoints in
the shared library are not persisting across debug restarts.

Once the shared library is loaded, I can defined breakpoints and they
correctly suspend program execution. But if I restart the debug session
by restarting the program, the breakpoints are not automatically
restarted when the shared library is loaded. They remain disabled.

How can I make shared library breakpoints be automatically enabled when
the library loads? Or how can I debug this to get more information?

Just wanted to raise this issue one more time incase anyone has any ideas:

Yes, I'm using the Mach-O parser with debug symbols. I'm manually
loading the shared library using dlopen. After loading, I call dlsym to
get a function address. I can step into the shared library and do
symbolic debugging - so this means that it has debug symbols and the
parser is working. But eclipse/CDT is not re-establishing the
breakpoints in the shared library. They are visible in the breakpoints
view but not enabled. Is there an eclipse command to "re-establish" all
breakpoints?
