Debugger, problem/question
« on: October 28, 2008, 12:11:02 pm »
Hello all, this is my first post in the forums but I have been using codeblocks for some time.

My problem is when I am trying to start the debugger. I have used it in a previous project and I have not changed anything since then. But now I get this message when I start it:

Quote
The debugger executable is not set. To set it go to "Settings/Compiler and debugger", switch to the "Programs" tab and select the debugger program

When I go there I see no "Programs" tab. I see Global Compiler Settings,Batch builds and Debugger Settings. Do you have any idea what I can do to be able to get back my debugging capabilities? Thanks in advance.

P.S.: Hope this is the right forum to ask :)

The tab is called "toolchain executables" I am going to fix this misleading message in SVN in a minute...
Compiler logging: Settings->Compiler & Debugger->tab "Other"->Compiler logging="Full command line"

Thank you friend!

And it seems that I had somehow re-installed mingw compiler in another folder, and that folder did not contain the debugger. Fixed that and it now works like a charm. Thanks again.
