Re: [cdt-dev] EDC now in build

Marc-Andre,

Sometimes when you install mingw it generates symbols in an obsolete format
(stabs) by default instead of Dwarf 2-3. Yet other versions of mingw seem to
default to Dwarf. Maybe Doug knows why because the mingw that comes with
Wascana always generates Dwarf by default.

As John noted EDC does not support stabs and doesn't say much when it hits a
symbol format it can't read. This is:

I don't know what's happening on Win 7, I'll have to investigate. I opened:

Thanks - Ken
