Re: [cdt-debug-dev] How to issue gdb commands throgh eclipse?

In the Debug perspective select Debug view and press the toolbar button according to attached picture. It becomes clickable as soon as debugging session starts.

Dear Mr.Alain , Mr.Oyvind and Mr.Thomas

Thank you for a reply.

I have problems in debugging C programs with eclipse.
In order to debug (a) a multithreaded program or (b) a multiprocess program , some gdb commands (e.g. attach
or dettach) should be issued.
So far, I have no idea whether it is possible to issue gdb commans via eclipse.
If not, it seems there is no way to use eclipse as a GUI
for GDB when it comes to multiprocess or multithreaded debugging.
Back trace and signal transmission can also say the same thing.

CDT/Debug can handle this well .. but there is room for improvement.
We are currently looking at the framework and  rewriting
part of it to make this better(especially for Multiprocess),
drafts will be posted etc ..

CDT/Debug is as good as the underlying debugger back-end.
If the backe-end is gdb and it fails for some reason, it is
unfair to blame the CDT/Debugger.

Understood very well.


Does anyone know how to issue gdb commands through eclipse.
There is an icon or the context menu that allows you to switch
the console to the debugger console(GDB in your case).

Sorry. Neither an icon nor a console can be found. Please let me know in detail to a slight degree.
