Hi all,
I'm a happy user of Eclipse and I use this IDE to develop some C/C++ programs. These programs are written within Eclipse (Galileo), compiled by MinGW (5.4.1) and debugged by GDB (7.2).
However, since I've switched from Galileo to Helios this combination doesn't fully work anymore. I think it has to do with the Debugger setting (Run -> Debug Configurations -> Debugger) because I only see 3 debuggers in this list while Galileo listed 5 items.
In Galileo the following items are available:
- Cygwin gdb Debugger
- gdb Debugger
- gdb/mi
- gdbserver Debugger
- MinGw gdb Debugger
In Helios I can only make a choice between:
- gdb/mi
- gdbserver Debugger
- MinGw gdb Debugger
The debug session only works correctly when "Cygwin gdb Debugger" or "gdb Debugger" is selected, however these items seems to be removed from Helios.
When "gdb/mi" or "MinGW gdb Debugger" is selected the program stops at Main() and it's possible to step in the code. However, when the debugger stops at a breakpoint only the trace is shown (i.e. "DATA*stopped,reason="breakpoint-hit",disp="keep",bkptno= "2",frame={addr="0x00409b85",func="TestApp,,,,,,,,,,,") and the process keeps running on the background. The "Resume" button stays grey and it's impossible to step.
On the internet I already found a post that says that "Cygwin gdb Debugger" and "gdb Debugger" are removed from Helios because it's outdated. However, I have the latest GDB release and this is incompatible with the rest of the list.
Could somebody help me out?

As the sticky post at the top of this forum indicates, you'll get more
and better help from the Eclipse CDT forum for questions such as these.
