I don't think this possibility exists yet. But someone hopefully will
do a real source level GUI debugger for Haiku at one point in the
future (maybe as Pe add-on) :-)
Anyway, when you compiled and linked your application to keep debug
information (the -g option), "bdb" can be very helpful. Indeed, you can
also run your application into it by issuing:
$ bdb my-application
In that case you can set break and watch points before the actual
program execution.
Also note that there is a newer bdb on BeBits than was released with
R5: http://www.bebits.com/app/1996
