Title: No debugger
Post by: zorro on February 10, 2009, 12:20:59 pm

I've just installed the latest version of CB (8.02), created a debug-project but can't find the debuuger. For instance there is no Debug menu or a possibilty to change debugger settings. Right-clicking on a line of code shows the 'add-breakpoint' option but doesn't add anythning to my program. How do i get this working? I've seen other people complaining about this but I could not find a solution to my problem. I must be simple, or not?

It took some time but finally solved my own problem. For anybody who's curious: you have to enable the debugger plugin (Plugins -> manage plugins, select debugger, click on enable). It is a bit strange that this option is not enabled by default.

NO, In my windows, this plugin is enabled by default.

Hi I don't want to create new topic and have solved ask here for my question.
So,question:
I can use any compiler with CB.
Can I use any debugger?
Is there a possibility to use any other debugger with CB(not GDB) ?

You can use many compilers with C::B, but (as far as I know) only gdb (for gcc/MinGW-projects) and cdb (for MS-projects) as debugger.

Gdb is well supported, I don't know how good C::B works together with cdb.
