Description Teresa Thomas 2008-06-11 20:19:48 UTC
When a write triggered watchpoint hits a write where value written to is the
same as previous value, the user sees:

(fhpd) Watchpoint hit: float_
   Value before hit = 1.9
   Value after  hit = 1.9

This can be confusing. Specify explicitly that value has not changed.
Comment 1 Teresa Thomas 2008-06-16 15:02:16 UTC
Can be resolved more efficiently after resolving 6648.
Comment 2 Teresa Thomas 2008-06-17 15:35:32 UTC
Commit:
    Fixes bz#6633. Dislay message if value unchanged before and after watch hit.
