ubuntu linux and gdb under C::B

[Kreso]

I've tried the 1.0rc2 release and many other nightly builds but they all suffer from the same problem:

debugger doesn't work -> whenever I set a breakpoint or want to start debugging by stepping into, the debugger runs and exits with status 0. It runs the entire program, but I cant break at any point

has anyone encountered this before?

windows builds work fine.

Be sure you're using GDB 6.3-2 and no 5.x. Be sure you're compiling with the flag -g and without -s too.

I have gdb 6.4 from ubuntu repos. should I compile gdb6.3?

Be sure you're using GDB 6.3-2 and no 5.x. Be sure you're compiling with the flag -g and without -s too.

and yeah, I'm compiling with only the -g flag, but still, the same problem.

here's the debugger output:

That looks bad. The program just shouldn't stop there. I couldn't tell you if it's because of GDB 6.4 or not.

It seems someone else was having problems with GDB 6.4 too, got 6.4-r4 and it worked. If you can try another version of GDB please do so.

I installed gdb6.3 from source and the same problem occoured, however, it seems to only happen on the hello world program created by the console wizard. I tried an OGRE wizard and both debuggers work there, so w0000000t
