RE: Breakpoint on class member function

[Mathews_Alex at emc dot com]

The ptype output is the same before and after, and it does list all the
members.  I'll try to debug the lookup routines.  Thanks for your
assistance.

Well, if I can't get a test case I'm not sure how much help I can be. 
Let's see...

Is "ptype foo" correct both before and after the "target remote"?

Does it list foo1 as a member?

If both are yes, you're going to have to debug the lookup routines
yourself to see where the problem is.
