Strange error when debugging

(1/3) > >>

Krice:
When I run the project in debug mode (F8) gdb.exe tells "These is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive :I". When you press Cancel three times it goes away and the program runs. I don't know if this is compiler or IDE related problem. I is the card reader (one of its "disk drives"), what could gdb want from that? Could this be some kind of virus in gdb?

oBFusCATed:
I think it is known bug in gdb on windows... Try to search the internet. I've seen this reported for drive e: it helps.

I like how the status is "closed":

https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw/bugs/2108/

It's a bug that could be fixed, but looks like another case of stubborn open source developers refusing to do anything about it.

I suggest you read the bug report to the end!!

They fixed the problem in their release; but, they did NOT fix it in other people releases!
Note: You need to report the problem with details to the site the created the GCC release you are using.
NOTE: If the mingw GCC is from the CB site, report the problem to the TDM site.

What's TDM? Anyway, I doubt it will change anything. They know it exists and wont fix it for whatever reason. That's open source for you. I mean why would your program try to access random disk drives? For what reason it has to do that? The worst thing is that gcc is I guess the only thing left if you rage quit VC like I did. I removed everything Visual Studio related when it stopped working because there was a mystery account someone made outside my own environment. Great way to alienate developers, Microsoft.
