Does this release has python scripting enabled?
If it is not enabled can you tell me why?

Python scripting is not enabled.  To be honest I haven't looked in to adding it (I don't use it myself), but I'll take a look at what's involved in adding the support this coming week.

thanks chris for your hard work. I will tested tonight.
Edit
It works fine, and the symtab/psymtab bug is fixed. Thanks very much!!

Just a heads up, I've release a new GDB snapshot:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/GNU%20Source-Level%20Debugger/GDB-7.0.50.20100202/gdb-7.0.50.20100202-mingw32-bin.tar.gz/download

This release includes a fix for the symtab / psymtab warnings that will be part of the GDB 7.1 release when it becomes official.

Cheers!

Chris

I'm trying to run the GDB debugger for on a Windows platform the first time on a C program and I get the following error message.  

"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."  

I looked on the Settings page and don't see a "Programs" tab.  What am I missing?

Do I need to separately install GDB?  If so, is there a how to link or can someone point me in the right direction?

Depends on your gcc installation.
But with this error-message the answer is most likely yes.
For a download see the link in one of the previous posts.

To check whether it is set up correctly, look into "Settings -> Compiler and debugger -> Global compiler settings -> [your compiler] -> Toolchain executables" .

I find the 7.0.50 version of gdb didn't work correctly.
when I try to view a wxString value in Codeblocks, it takes a lot of time.

--- Code: ---> whatis m_Buffer
type = wxString
>>>>>>cb_gdb:
> output /c m_Buffer.m_pchData[0]@((wxStringData*)m_Buffer.m_pchData - 1)->nDataLength
{116 't', 101 'e', 115 's', 116 't', 46 '.', 99 'c', 112 'p', 112 'p'}>>>>>>cb_gdb:


--- End code ---

When the codeblocks send the command : output xxxxx to gdb, it takes several (more than 10s) to return the string value.
