Eclipse+ Photran + Fortan + Debugger don't work [message #1411557] Sat, 23 August 2014 18:02 Go to next message

I have

Win 7
Eclipse Luna 4.4.0 Build 20140612-0600
Photran 8.2.1
Cygwin Devel Packages gfortran + make (used)
MinGW with g95 (installed but not used because no make.exe)

So I downloaded the Hello World example, changed it a bit

program HelloW
implicit none
integer i
i=1
print *,i
print *, "Hello MPI World"
i=i+1
print *,i
i=1000
print *,i
end program

1) So problem number one. The default debuggers (Run->Debug Configuration->Debugger) gdbserver and minGW gbd don't work, because they need .gdbinit. I created an empty file .gdbinit, but it doesn't help. I could find no info of what must be inside.

Next problem:
2) As debugger I chose gdb/mi. It seems to work without .gdbinit. I set a break point in front of integer i line. I start the debugger but it looks like it runs till the end of the program and suspends there (the last line end program is lighted green). Now if I press F5 it starts to move in the program step by step from the very beginning, but it needs 3 button presses to do 1 line. It first jumps forward, nothing happens, then it jumps back, and on the 3rd press it jumps forward again and execute the line (e.g. the variable i changes). What the hell is that?

Are there any users alive, who debugged a Fortran program under Eclipse?

Hi

I hope you solved your problems in the meanwhile. I am also new to Eclipse but have been using fortran for a while. Hope this can be usefull for other people with the same problems...

I'm using Eclipse on WinXP and Win7 with minGW.

1) .gdbinit aparently is not necessary! just ignore it!

2) most important: to debug you have to get your workspace in a path without spaces!
something like "c:\whatever\workspace" will work...
"c:\Documents and Settings\jose\workspace" will not work.

hope it helps

Jose

Hello,


Does anyone have an update to this? I have the exact same problems, two years out!!!

Has been an unbelievable hassle setting up the debugger for Eclipse Fortran.
