An interesting thought was suggested by Vadim Zeitlin here:

I'm far from being a gdb guru but here is a function that works (put this
in your ~/.gdbinit):

        define pu
          set $uni = $arg0
          set $i = 0
          while (*$uni && $i++<100)
            if (*$uni < 0x80)
              output/c (char)(*$uni++)
            else
              output/x *$uni++
            end
          end
        end

        define pws
          pu $arg0.c_str()
        end

 Use "pu" with "wxChar *" or "pws" with wxString.


I guess the same defines (or a similar for qstrings) could be sent to gdb on start of \
every debug session. Then kdevelop could print unicode strings by just executing pu \
or pws (or maybe pqstring), if such a value is to be shown.
