newbie question

Gabriel:
Hello:

I'm newbie to code::blocks, and I'm just trying to debug an old C++ program (console application) that I've made with borland 5.5 and debugged with TD55 (but without IDE). So I specified the correct executables (bcc32 and td32) of version 5.5 for compiler/debugger settings.
Building succeed, but when choosing Debug --> Start, I get: Invalid switch: -nx
Although I didn't specified such a switch.

could you help?

thanks
Gabriel

Jenna:
C::B only supports gdb and (partly) cdb as debugger, sorry.

Gabriel:
Ok, but does gdb works with BC55?

thanks

Most likely not, it's a completely different compiler. Borland used to have an own debugger IMHO. At least back in the Turbo C++ days.

Gabriel:
I've downloaded the last version 7.0 of gdb, (from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/), unzipped it, but I didn't found any executable file (*.exe).

there is 7138 files, 209 folders, occupying 118MB, but no exe files. Am I missing something??

Thank you
