Debugger not working

<< < (2/2)

jeqcho:
Thanks stahta01, I got the debugger working!

What I did is download minGW64 from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win32/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/installer/mingw-w64-install.exe/download

which downloads the installer exe (watch out for a download page that look similar to this, but downloads a zip instead. That's where I wasted a lot of time)

So I downloaded it into the MinGW folder in the CodeBlocks folder, and then go to Settings > Debugger > GDB/CDB Debugger:Default and then set executable path as C:\CodeBlocks\MinGW\mingw64\bin\gdb.exe

Then the debugger works like a charm! However, it keeps asking me to change perspectives every time I debug. How can I solve this next, smaller problem?

oBFusCATed:
There is a checkbox in the dialog. Select it and it will stop.

@jeqcho: If you're using cygwin and have problems with debugging you can watch when this issue https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/909/ is resolved.
