Yes, this is the right place to ask your questions.

Unfortunately, no.

CDT uses the MI interface to communicate with gdb. No other implementation is
available at the moment.

use CDT for AVR targets?
I have seen messages from people who tried (and some of them more or less
succeeded) to use CDT with different remote targets. You can search this mailing
list or the CDT newsgroup for information.

Subject: [cdt-debug-dev] Using CDT as
avr-gdb frontent for AVR target platforms
Hello,
having had a closer look at a couple of free IDEs, I have been rapidly
convinced of your Eclipse CDT-Project. Good work.
I am presently encountering a couple of problems while trying to use CDT
not only as IDE for generating my avr-elf executable but also as gdb front end
accessing the hardware emulator.
So far I succeeded in using CDT as IDE and GDB front-end for SW development
on my Cygwin-Windows box. With the help of the good integrated tutorial it was
an easy task.
It also was about no work to set up a CDT project for generating the
elf-executable for my target hardware (AVR).
Up to now, however, I did not succeed in telling CDT to use the existing
target system avr-gdb for debugging.
More specifically I would like to ask the following questions:
1.) First thing: Is this the rigtht forum to ask questions about
integration of GDB into the CDT environment? Or in case that I am wrong, who
might be able to give me a bit of help?
2.) Is there kind of tutorial or readme describing how to integrate an
existing target system gdb into the CDT front end?
3.) Is an existing command-line based gdb sufficient for being integrated
into CDT or is there anything particular required (MI-Interface ???) in order
to make gdb available.
4.) Does anybody now of somebody who has tried (or better: succeeded) to
use CDT for AVR targets?
Yours,
Björn Haase
