nightly builds: impossible to debug?

(1/4) > >>

ASJ:
I'am trying a lot of the nightly builds last period of time on my win2k machine using the mingw compilers.
Everything runs smoothly but whenever I compile debug information in and put a breakpoint somewhere I get a message like the following in the debugging pane:

--- Code: ---Selecting target: default
Compiling: done
Adding source dir: G:\CodeBlocksProjects\MovieProcessing\trunk\
Adding file: G:\CodeBlocksProjects\MovieProcessing\trunk\MovieProcessing.exe
Starting debugger: done
Registered new type: wxString
Registered new type: STL String
Registered new type: STL Vector
Setting breakpoints
Debugger name and version: GNU gdb 5.2.1
No source file named G:/CodeBlocksProjects/MovieProcessing/trunk/MainFrame.cpp.


--- End code ---
and the breakpoint has no influence at all.
Of course this makes sense because I think the filename is to a large extent still in "unix style". Is this a matter of just changing a setting? Do more people encounter this problem?

This same problem I also encountered a couple of times before, but I never managed to fix it so always reurned to RC2 where the debugging is working smoothly as well.

That's the problem:

Use gdb 6.3

ASJ:
That solves all the problems! Thanks! :D :D :D

Just a small question: gdb 6.3 is a snapshot release. Does this give any nasty problems?

yop:
Haven't experienced any.

I cannot find GDB 6.3 for Win32.
Do you know where to get it?


Thanks in advance, Sebastian
