About the gdb, I use gdb Python pretty printer when debugging.

Do you have ucrt installed? I`m asking because such named dlls are present in ucrt, so may be there are less "hack-like" solution.

I don't use ucrt library, I think it doesn't work under Windows 7. :)
Look at this: MSYS2: What's the difference between UCRT 64 and x64?
Am I correct?

That is, in order to conveniently output data specifically for "c++" ("c" does not apply), you need python, is it impossible to write in "c++" a python script replacement for data output in codeblocks? Of course, "c++" can't help but create problems on the same place :( Drags python, which in turn destroys support for XP, 7 and later 8, 10, etc. The best thing to do is to compile gdb without compiled python support (let python free-swim) and write programs in "c" and you will have no problems with supporting different versions of Windows starting with XP ;)
We don't need crutches and dirty hacks.

IIRC, there is an UCRT download for Windows 7.
