Hi Marc,
Thanks for your answer. Apparently my gdb doesn’t understand –list-thread-groups … I didn’t compile that gdb myself, is there any recommendation how gdb should ideally be compiled for the CDT ? Of course I’ll
want non-stop-mode, reverse debug, multi-attach, multicore visualizer and all the other goodies
J
My CDT is a recent build from cdt-maint on top of Eclipse 3.8.1 (I think I was using build #388).
-bash-3.00$ gdb

It is not obvious to me why you would get a local list of processes...
You can look at the gdb traces and see what is happening differently:
To fill the process prompter with values, CDT asks GDB for the list of processes using
-list-thread-groups --available
If that command does not work (as it may not for Solaris), the remote session should fall back
to asking for a pid directly. For the local case, the list will be provided by CDT itself.
I wonder if there is some confusion between the remote and local case?
What version of CDT are you using?

Subject: [cdt-dev] "Attach Process" dialog for gdb running remotely ?
Hi,
I have an odd problem, trying to debug a remote application with gdb running remotely.
Here’s what I do:
1.
Create a new “C/C++ Attach Application” Launch
2.
Leave the project and app fields empty on the main tab
3.
Enter “ssh szg-vm01-qa-lx2 gdb“ as the debugger to use on the debugger tab
Launch it, and wohoo I get a Process picker dialog showing remote processes, everything works fine !
The remote host in that case is RHEL 5.8 with gdb 7.0, NFS-shared file system.
BUT
When I try the same against a remote Solaris 10 host running gdb-7.4 , I’m getting a LOCAL
Process picker dialog, showing the local processes (and the “New…” button enabled).
I don’t have the full file system shared in that case.
What could be the reason why I don’t get a remote process picker in the 2nd case ?
Can I enable logging of any kind to troubleshoot ?
Thanks,
Martin
