This was fixed in Xcode 2.3 when you use file & line number to specify the breakpoints (for instance by clicking in the Source Pane in the gutter.) If you do it by symbol name, it doesn't work yet.

The problem was that each constructor & destructor is actually implemented by 3 or 4 functions, and up to Xcode 2.3 we were only setting the breakpoint in one of them. In Xcode 2.3 we fixed the file & line specification so it broke in all the instances (this means template function breakpoints will also get all the instantiations.)

We'll get the symbol name pretty soon. This shouldn't be as big a problem for Xcode users, however, since the natural way to set breakpoints is by file & line.

I've had a consistant and on-going problem setting breakpoints in constructors in a C++ project I'm working on. Breakpoints in all other functions work as expected, and I can step into constructors from other functions, but I can't break directly in a constructor.

I searched the archives, and there are a few mentions of this, but none mention a fix. Has anyone else seen this, know of a fix, or know if XCode 2.3 fixes this issue?
This problem drove me nuts for a long time.  But with Xcode 2.3 and
using dwarf I no longer have the problem.  Give that a try.
