Getting error 2 when trying to run debug
« on: December 11, 2022, 12:24:40 am »
When I attempt to start debug or click step into to debug, I receive the following error:

Active debugger config: GDB/CDB debugger:Default
Building to ensure sources are up-to-date
Selecting target:

Debugger name and version: GNU gdb (GDB) (Cygwin 11.2-1) 11.2
Error creating process /cygdrive/e/Smith/Computer_Courses/AdventOfCode/AOC2022/AOC02/E:/Smith/Computer_Courses/AdventOfCode/AOC2022/AOC02/bin/Debug/AOC02.exe, (error 2).
Debugger finished with status 0

For some reason, the debugger is appending the windows directory path (with forward slashes)
   E:/Smith/Computer_Courses/AdventOfCode/AOC2022/AOC02/
to the cygwin directory path
   /cygdrive/e/Smith/Computer_Courses/AdventOfCode/AOC2022/AOC02/

Is there some setting that can alleviate the problem.
I am using Code::Blocks version 20.03 and cygwin version 3.4.1 on Windows10 Pro.
