[OT] MinGW GCC 4.4 released!

<< < (2/2)

ollydbg:
oh, my God, we still can't set breakpoints in header file when debugging in CB :(.

Seems this bug has fixed in TDM-GCC, but still exists in Offical MinGW 4.4.0.

See the description:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2145427&group_id=200665&atid=974439

By the way:

Is there any way I can report to Official MinGW dev Team?
or it is already in bug tracker.

I have never reported a bug; note submitting a patch is very hard to do right; I tried once.
( A lot of MinGW Code is Public Domain which means you can not submit GPL code in some cases.)

I have reported in MinGW user maillist. Hopefully they can get attention.

--- Quote ---Problem setting a breakpoint in a header file.

Steps to demonstrate the problem:

(1) Create and move to directory C:\CB

(2) Create header file Function.h
    inline int Fcn1()
    {
        return 1;
    }

(3) Create source file main.cpp
    #include "Function.h"
    int main()
    {
        int A = Fcn1();
        A *= 2;
        return 0;
    }

(4) Open a command window

(5) Compile with following (note backslashes in filename as used by CodeBlocks in Windows)
gcc -g  C:\CB\main.cpp -o CB.exe

(6) Launch debugger
gdb CB.exe

(7) Try to set breakpoint in header
(gdb) b C:\CB\Function.h:3
   and get error
No source file named C:\CB\Function.h in loaded symbols.

(8) Quit debugger, erase CB.exe and recompile with following (note forward slashes)
gcc -g  C:/CB/main.cpp -o CB.exe

(9) Launch debugger
gdb CB.exe

(10) Again try to set breakpoint in header
(gdb) b C:\CB\Function.h:3
   and this time successfully get
Breakpoint 1 at 0x4017db: file C:/CB/Function.h, line 3.

Why not we use "forward slashed" in CB to skip this bug?  :D

Please look at using this patch if you change the Compiler to 4.4 DW2
https://developer.berlios.de/patch/index.php?func=detailpatch&patch_id=2780&group_id=5358

It creates the exchndl.dll that creates the codeblocks.RPT under windows. The old exchndl.dll only seems to work well with 3.4.5 SJLJ Compiler.
