Problem debugger finding source files
« on: January 30, 2006, 08:51:04 pm »
I am building a project that is 1 application and several DLLs, all built with mingw32 and codeblocks.

Anyways I can't seem to jump into the DLLs because GDB can't find the source files.  If I open up one of the DLL source file and execute "run to cursor" I get the message "No source file named gsosengineroot.cpp".  I've used the debugger configuration to include projects in same workspace, so it is supposedly adding the directories where the dll source code resides.

Whats wierd is I can single step from the main code into the DLL source, I just can't jump to it directly.  Any ideas?

Use gdb 6.3.

The newer version seemed to be able to find my source...

Is there any way to speed this up...  It says "breakpint (blah blah blah) pending" for several seconds before it gets to
"breakpoint (blah blah blah) resolved" and finds the file.  Is there a way to start the search for files at specific locations.

thanks

No, starting the debugger takes some time, unluckily.
