CDT versus M$ SFU [message #144910] Mon, 09 May 2005 07:30

Hello,

I am trying to use CDT (CDT 3.0M6 with Eclipse 3.0M6 om Win2k) with
Microsofts Unix Environment, ServicesForUnix (SFU, formerly known as
Interix).
There are mainly two problems with this combination:

First, CDT insists on Windows executables ending in .exe. SFU executables
like make or gdb have no suffix.
So i had to make copies make -> make.exe gdb -> gdb.exe to get things
started.
I therefore propose, to allow Windows executables without suffix in CDTs
program logic.
The same reasoning applies to executables generated with make targets, not
only external tools.

Second, CDT is able to launch gdb (the gdb.exe copy) but isnt able to
communicate with it:

Error creating session
Target is not responding (timed out)

I changed the relevant timeouts (ten times the default), but to no avail.
My first guess was, that SFU gdb is to old for CDT 3.0M6.
But the version string is

gdb 2002-11-11-cvs
This GDB was configured as "i586-pc-interix3".

This is newer than gdb 5.2.1, which definitely works with CDT 3.0M6 using
e.g. the MinGW environment.
How to diagnose / proceed with this problem?

Greetings

Franz
