Mark,

We are working on it, but it is not as easy to do as it would naively seem, since we have to propagate this info through the whole toolchain before we can use it in gdb (then we actually have to use it in gdb). Work is underway on all the required fronts, but we won't have anything in the near term...

Jim

Normally we try to cast the object to its dynamic type if we can find it. However, if we can't (this is one example where we are failing to find it) we will present the static type of the object. That's not as good as getting the full type, but that's all that should happen...

Ick! That explains a lot! Is there any help on the horizon? My project makes extensive use of namespaces and I'm already suffering from these problems.
