Hi,
I'm trying to get Eclipse with CDT going but am having some problems with
the debugger.
The setup is WIN XP, cygwin, Eclipse 2.1.2, CDT 1.2.0, Sun JRE 1.4. GDB is
version/dated 20030919-1. I just download this and tried it on 2 machines
with the same problems.
I've created a simple "hello world" project. The makefile was generated for
me. I launch eclipse from the bash shell.
A) When I go into debug mode, it says: "Source not found. The file
'..\hello.cpp' not found.
I had to go uncheck the Generic Source Location, and added an
explicit path to the debug folder (c:\eclipse\workspace\hello\Debug). Then,
it finds the source. Is this a known problem and the correct workaround?
B) When I set a breakpoint in my file, it seems fine and shows up in my
Breakpoints list. However, when I hit "resume", the execution does not stop
at the breakpoint. Strangely, if I use the "Run To Line" function, the
debugger will stop at that line. Anyone else seen this?
I have checked that it is indeed a debug build. with -g3 -gstabs.
The same executable can be debugged in the insight debugger that came with
gdb, and I can set breakpoints there.
Inside Eclipse, I could also step, view variables, etc.
Any suggestions of what to try would be appreciated.
Howard.

Did you select the Cygwin Debugger in the Launch-Configuration?

I have Debugger as "Cygwin GDB Debugger", "Run program in debugger" checked,
"Stop at main() on startup" checked, and "Enable variable bookkeeping"
checked.
I've also tried just "GDB Debugger" which behaves the same with the output
going to the Console sub-window.
Is this what you are referring to? Thanks, Howard.

Why did you launch Eclipse from the bash shell?

That was it!
I did it because running the shell adds the Cygwin directories to my path.
I just added c:\cygwin\bin to my path and launched it from a DOS prompt and
both problems are gone.
I typically don't use Cygwin tools outside of the bash shell. I guess other
people, especially CDT people, do this all the time without any problems.
Thanks for pointing this out.
Howard.
