RE: [cdt-dev] Upcoming CDT Service Release and OS X Debugging.

Hi,
I've commented on 250037 and should be able to commit your solution soon but only for DSF-GDB.
Thanks for the patch
Marc

Hi,
This is very good news! I will definitely help with patches and testing.
Even without having the new set of services, there is bug 250037 which
contains a patch affecting both CDI and DSF-GDB. I'm pretty sure this
can be applied to 6.0.2. I can strip out the CDI stuff if that's better.
Also, maybe it would be a good idea to have a wiki page with details of
each Apple gdb versions? I'm thinking MI commands, output, etc.
Cheers!
