GDB version compatibility with Eclipse [message #1807212]

Environment:
I am using Eclipse Oxygen CDT for debugging a remote target. The GDB I am using is version 7.5.1 cross compiled for powerpc architecture. I have written my own gdbserver implementation to communicate with host GDB.

Problem:
I am facing some glitches while debugging, such as eclipse hangs when I resume a process in non-stop mode, GDB/MI preferences not shown in preferences window etc.

What I doubt now is whether my GDB v7.5.1 is compatible with eclipse oxygen or not. I searched all over the eclipse websites, there is no mention of compatibility between GDB and eclipse releases.

Also, does CDT come with an inbuilt GDB which I can use ?

I am already using my GDB the same way as you mentioned.

Once all configuration is in place and I start debugging, eclipse crashes when I resume a thread.

Also, just today I noticed that eclipse doesn't crash if I am using eclipse Neon instead of Oxygen. That has further confirmed my doubt that eclipse oxygen and GDB 7.5.1 may not be compatible with each other.

What I am looking for is reference to find out what version of GDB eclipse oxygen supports.
