Getting the GDB (DSF) create Process launcher to stop in shared library breakpoints [message #640597]

I had trouble, that gdb would not stop at breakpoints in shared libraries, discussed here:
http:// www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=200106&sta rt=0&S=17202ee5abff12b664faec647de0c3f3

In the thread, a solution solving the problem was suggested: Do not use "GDB (DSF) create Process launcher" but use "Standard create Process launcher".

Works, but one disadvantage: Starting the application takes forever while the console is spamed with

Stopped due to shared library event

For my application, it takes really long, making debugging it very annoying.

In the thread, it was said that the next CDT release would fix the problem.
I am wondering: Is there any way I could get a fix earlier?

It would really help!!!

Thanks!
Nathan

You could take a CDT nightly build (at your own risk Smile

) for the 8.0 release.

I will risk it Smile

.

Should I upgrade to eclipse 3.7 first, or should I stay with eclipse 3.6?

Is this problem resolved in Indigo ?

And where could I get documentation about these two modes ?
The documentation provided with Indigo is obsolete regarding this point.

Thanks.

Yes, it is fixed in Indigo as long as you use GDB >= 6.8.

If by "two modes" you mean the "GDB (DSF)" launcher and the "Standard Process" launcher, there is some info here:

As said before. You should upgrade to Eclipse Indigo and use the DSF debug launcher.
