Debugging C++ Exceptions does not work

Hello,

I am experiencing a problem debugging C++ Exceptions.  From reading through the post, this is an old subject from what I have read and was fixed, but ...

CodeBlocks is not catching C++ Exceptions properly.  My Environment is the following ...

Fedora 14  (x86_x64)
Code::Blocks - Aug 30 2010, 10:53:58 - wx2.8.11 (Linux, unicode) - 64 bit
gcc-c++-4.5.1-4.fc14 (x86_64)
gdb-7.2.51.fc14 (x86_64)
and I do have Catch C++ Exceptions turned on in the Debugger Settings

Are there any Debugger initialization commands?

Here is a simple example ...

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main () {
    try {
        throw 20;
    } catch (int e) {
        cout << "Just testing ... " << e << endl;
    }

    return 0;
}

I set the break point on the cout and when the exception is thrown, CodeBlocks appears to hang.   If I set my cursor on the cout line and click on "run to cursor", CodeBlocks will stop on the cout line.   

I have tried the same code in NetBeans and Netbeans stops on the break point so the problem is not gdb.

Am I missing anything?  Is this still a problem with CodeBlocks?  I like CodeBlocks and do not want to switch back to Netbeans but ...

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

It works here on debian with the debugger-branch, but not with trunk, even if "auto-switch to first frame with valid code" (or however it is called exactly) is set.
Because gdb stops at __cxa_throw in libstdc++.so.6, b ut no source is available.

But I can just click on "next line"and I am on the line with the throw-statement.
Alternatively executing "frame 1" in the command-textctrl in the debugger's log-window switches to the next frame (in this case the frame which  has thrown the exception).

Hello Jens,

Can you be more specific as to the debugger-branch?  Is it the wxpropgrid_debugger under branches in SVN? 

Thanks,
David

Yes !

Hello Jens,

That appears to take care of my problem with C++ Exceptions, however is there an easy way to get back my plugins?

From the Fedora 14 repository, has the following:

codeblocks-10.05
codeblocks-libs-10.05
codeblocks-contrib-10.05 (plugins)
codeblocks-contrib-libs-10.05 (plugins)

I assume the build added codeblocks-10.05 and codeblocks-libs-10.05.  From your experience, would it be better to work with
the contrib (plugins) from SVN or from the Fedora repository?

Thanks in advance.

David
