I'm not sure how to reference a variable in a nested function from gdb.
In the gdb session below, there are 2 things I don't understand
how to do:

1) how do I set a breakpoint in foo? (other than by referencing a line
       number)


Have you tried calling it main::foo?


2) when I'm in foo, how do I reference i?


Have you tried calling it main::i?

I'm not sure these will work, but I think they're supposed to.


I get the error: Can't find member of namespace, class, struct, or union named "main::foo"

Same for main::i
