RE: [dsdp-dd-dev] Problem in debugging with DSF.

Hi Marc,

 

I downloaded the latest cygwin with gdb ver 6.8.20080328 and checkout the latest dsf from HEAD. When I launch a local application, I am not able to see any stack frame and here is what I see in the console,

 

[New thread 2804.0x12e8]

[New thread 2804.0x1650]

mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]

mi_cmd_stack_list_frames: Usage: [FRAME_LOW FRAME_HIGH]

mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]

 

Do you have any idea what might have gone wrong?

 

Regards,

Patrick

Hi Marc,

A temporary fix you made, works fine! Thanks a lot!
Now I see all debugger related views in a proper way.

I also see Update Policy menu when I enable 'Debug Update Modes' setting.

Thanks again!
 
Sincerely,
Dmitri Pikus

Ok, I resorted to a hack.  The reason behind this issue is that we are coding for GDB 7 before it is out.
Since that will get fixed before our next release, I figured a temporary hack for cygwin was ok for a short time.
 
Dmitri, you can update your org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb plugin.  LaunchUtils.java should change.
Try it out and let me know if it works for you.
 
I opened https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=261700
to track the whole GDB versioning issue.
 
Marc

Since GDB 7 has not been released yet and the newest GDB was 6.8, I had to assume that any GDB higher than 6.8
was a built from GDB HEAD which contained GDB 7 features such as --thread/--frame.
This logic was bound to fail eventually... Sigh...
 
In your case, you have a GDB higher than 6.8, but it does not contain the GDB 7 features...
 
I'll try to come up with a workaround...

Hi Pawel and Anton,


I'm using Cygwin gdb.
Here is  'gdb --version' output:

Dimtry,

 
it looks like the gdb you are using does not understand the new --thread option:

 
498,968 10-stack-info-depth --thread 1 11
498,968 &"mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]\n"
498,968 10^error,msg="mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]"

IIRC this option is only available since gdb version 6.8.50.

The gdb version is checked before launching the debug session, but this might fail in your case.

Could you post the output of gdb --version?

 
Thanks,

Toni

Hi All,


Following our previous mail exchange, I checked-out DSF from:

/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf

/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf-gdb


and CDT from: /cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/all


I get the same error as in original mail when running it.


a) Console:

New thread 9356.0x23a0]

[New thread 9356.0x2330]

mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]

mi_cmd_stack_list_frames: Usage: [FRAME_LOW FRAME_HIGH]

mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]


b) Nothing is printed to '<workspace>/.metadata/.log'.


c) I enabled tracing in plugin 'org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb' (that is, as I understand, corresponds to 'org.eclipse.dd.mi' plugin from release 1.1.0).

Trace is enclosed in 'trace.txt' file.

Dmitri Pikus

Hi,


to compile the migrated DSF plug-ins you need CDT from CVS HEAD.

Some internal classes and interfaces moved to API packages since CDT 5.0.x.
See also
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=251406.

Sorry for any inconvenience.


Regards,

Toni

Re: [dsdp-dd-dev] Problem in debugging with DSF.



Hi All,


Thanks for responses!


1. I tried the official release of Device Debug 1.1.0 Release Build from 8.12.2008 (DSF SDK + DSF GDB-MI + DSF GDB-Launch), and I got the same result as described in original mail, Problem 1, Scenario 1.


Corresponding '<workspace>/.metadata/.log' is included:

======


2. To enable tracing, I checked-out DSF plugins from new location mentioned:

/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf

/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf-gdb


Compilation of the following projects fails:

org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.ui

org.eclipse.cdt.tests.dsf.gdb


Examples of compilation problems:

In project org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.ui, in class in class
CSourcePresentationCreator:

import
org.eclipse.cdt.ui.text.AsmSourceViewerConfiguration; isn't resolvable,
in my case it's:
import org.eclipse.cdt.internal.ui.editor.asm.AsmSourceViewerConfiguration;

import
org.eclipse.cdt.ui.text.CSourceViewerConfiguration; isn't resolvable
in my case it's:  
import org.eclipse.cdt.internal.ui.text.CSourceViewerConfiguration;

etc...


I use CDT from 5.0.1 master update (cdt-master-5.0.1.zip, files have a date Sept 12, 2008).
Could it be that I use incorrect CDT version?


Thanks in advance,


Sincerely,
Dmitri Pikus

Hi,

About the breakpoint action issue: there was a small mishap when the contexts structure were re-factored for multi-process support and that case unfortunately fell through the cracks.

Marc and I made a quick patch and it tested OK.

I opened Bug261258 and I will post the fix shortly.

Regards,
/fc

Hi again,


with Francois' help we tested actions again (we do support them, sorry) and reproduced the class cast exception.

I will look into it.

A full copy of the log found in <workspace>/.metadata/.log would be very helpful too.

<--- PROBLEM1 --->

Environment:
OS: Windows XP Professional, SP2.
 
I don't have acces to that environment so I won't be able to try out
your test.
But we can try to address it by email only.



Eclipse: 3.4.1
CDT: 5.0.1
DSF: 1.1.0 - latest plugins taken from CVS (
dev.eclipse.org,
 
/cvsroot/dsdp)

You should probably take the 1.1.0 official release at

http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/dd/downloads/.
The latest plugins are most probably fine but in rare cases may not
always work.
Also, for your info, DSF has migrated to CDT so the plugins will
continue to elvolve in
/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf and
/cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.cdt/dsf-gdb



Debugged application: simple C application with single method( main()
 
) that contains several printouts.

SCENARIO1:
1. Line breakpoint without actions is set.
2. Application is debugged with DSF.

Problem1: Threads change to 'Suspended' state, but call stack isn't
 
shown.

Problem2: Line with reached breakpoint isn't colored.
Problem3: The following mesages are displayed in console:
mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]
mi_cmd_stack_list_frames: Usage: [FRAME_LOW FRAME_HIGH]
mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]
 
Since you have the plugins checked-out, you can enable tracing so we can
see the commands.
Before you launch the eclipse that will run DSF, go to your launch
configuration and
select the Tracing tab.  Find the plugin org.eclipse.dd.mi and check the
box,
as well as the debug box on the right-hand panel for that plugin.
You can then reproduce this and you will see the commands that are being
sent.
If you can copy paste the commands that match those errors (or the whole
session
would be great.)



SCENARIO2:
1. Line breakpoint with Resume action is set.
 
I don't think we support Actions yet.



2. Application is debugged with DSF.
Problem: ClassCastException happens:

 
org.eclipse.dd.gdb.internal.provisional.service.command.GDBControlDMCont
ext incompatible with
org.eclipse.dd.dsf.debug.service.IRunControl$IExecutionDMContext

Changing GDBControlDMContext class to implement IExecutionDMContext
 
doesn't help much:

I see problems 1 and 2 as in scenario 1, and message
 
'mi_cmd_stack_info_depth: Usage: [MAX_DEPTH]' is displayed.

GDBControlDMContext is no longer an IExecutionDMContext, ever since we
started to support multi-process debugging.
Obviously, there is a case where the use of GDBControlDMContext has not
been replaced.
Do you have the stack dump of the exception?



<--- PROBLEM1 --->
Update Policy selection not showing in the variables view menu.
 
If you want to use update policies, you have to enable them using
Window->Customize Perspective... and should enable the checkbox for
"Debug Update Modes"
