Help with debugging codeblocks build from sources

(1/2) > >>

AndrewCot:
Can someone point me to a doc/web page/thread or anything that will show to tell or let me know how to debug a build of the codeblocks.exe from source using the nightly 12458 downloaded executable  so I can figure out why the codeblocks.exe and dll's I built is crashing when I try to build a simple C++ test file.

Background:
I have cloned https://github.com/obfuscated/codeblocks_sf and downloaded wxWidget 3.1.5 source (https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/releases/download/v3.1.5/wxWidgets-3.1.5.zip).
I have build wxwidget with NO patches. If this is wrong please let me know where I can grab the patches or correct wxwidget sources.
I have built codeblocks using the CodeBlocks_wx31_64.cbp project file and then run the update31_64.bat.
The codeblocks source does NOT have any of my changes in it.
The nightly 12458 calls the GCC exe and therefore builds the simple C++ test file.


Build Status:
The built codeblocks.exe starts and loads projects, but when I build I get an exception thrown in ntdll.dll that looks like a corrupted filespec in the call to findfirst() from the call stack in the attached codeblocks.RPT file.

Call stack Snippet:
codeblocks.exe caused an Access Violation at location 00007FFDB40FFAAD in module ntdll.dll Writing to location 00000000489E40B0.

Windows Version:
I am running Windows 10 21H1 with MS patches up until Monday night.
I have MSYS2 using mingw64 with latest updates as of yesterday morning (24 hrs ago).

AndrewCot:
I have figured out how to debug the codeblocks.exe built from source within the nightly codeblocks exe, but I cannot get breakpoints I set in code that is in the compiler.dll plugin to break in the nightly codeblokcs.exe. Looks like more google and forum searching.

Any pointers with debugging a plugin dll?

AndrewCot:
Worked it out  project did not have debug compiler option "-g" enabled.

oBFusCATed:
There is a global variable cb_release_type. Set it to something like "-O0 -g"

gd_on:
I had a similar problem described in https://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,24363.msg166172.html#msg166172 : RPT file looks very similar.
I published a patch (ticket #1086: https://sourceforge.net/p/codeblocks/tickets/1086/) which solved the problem for me, but has not been still integrated in official distribution. May be you can try it.
And if you use gcc from msys2 last version (with gcc 10.3 64 bits), you'll probably will have an other problem described in https://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,24486.0.html but I have no solutions for that, except to use an "old" compiler version, before the last update of binutils to 2.36!
