CanŽt debug application with sources in subdirs [message #166110]

IŽve written this already in teh "newcomer" group but now I think this
belongs more in here.
I want to debug a project where the source files are in subdirectories of
the project folder. Nothing uncommon IMHO but when I set a breakpoint in
one of those files when I want to debug I get a red message in the console
"no file xxxxx.c" where xxxx is the filename. The breakpoints arenŽt
executed. AFAIK the debugging information contains absolute paths, so I do
ÂŽt understand what goes wrong here.
Could anybody help me?
Thanks in advance :)

Michael,

I take that it is a C/C++ project, and then it is definitely the right place
here.

Hmmm did it before and it worked.

This is the code for dxx-rebirth from www.dxx-rebirth.de.
In the base dir there are no source files, however for example in the "2d"
subdir there are source and header files. Each of these subdirs is build
as a static library, and theyŽre all linked together to produce the output
binary.
I set a breakpoint e.g. in "main/inferno.c".
IŽm using eclipse on SuSE Linux 10.0.
Thanks in advance for your help, and IŽll gladly give more details if
needed.

sure your breakbpoints ever got hit?
i have subfolders (and get the message regarding non-existing source-file
as well), but my breakpoints usually get hit.
they don't if the code in question is called via corba, but that's normal.
- did you check whether your folders are known to the debugger?
- check "stop at main" in the debugger-page of the launcher and try to
step into your code.

Why do these message appear at all? Do I have to change settings when I
have subdirs to "make them recognized" by eclipse or does eclipse
recognize them automatically (it should IMHO when there are sources in the
subdirs).

have a look at your launcher's "source"-tab -- are your folders there?

Yes, they are there

Do you know whether this message is generated by eclipse or by GDB?
