Debugging with external debugger
Curtisc:
I just switched my work computer to linux, and I now need to recompile some custom modules for a program (Amira 3.1.1). I like the looks of code::blocks better than eclipse, but I can't seem to figure out how to create a blank project that will allow me to use my own (amira created) makefile, as well as specify the program as an external debugger. Any hints?
Also... I tried just importing the VC++ 6.0 files, and the program crashed each time I opened it. Can that even work on linux?

Which C::B version? If RC2 try the latest nightly build.
Best wishes,

I'm using the May 24 build.
I think I need to recreate the project anyway, so I'm not going to bother with the visual studio stuff - I've got all sorts of custom library paths and all that and it's just easier to have Amira make the makefile for me. So far I've got it so that if I make it through the command line, it's finding all the right headers and everything but there's a few errors (probably related to compiler differences), so I'd rather be using an IDE. Now I just need to go back to my original problem - how do I specify an external debugger? I tried running the program and attaching to the process number, but that didn't seem to work.

Ok... now I'm just creating a new project, and every time I try to add files to it it crashes. Maybe the old version is more stable?

That's strange. You just add new files to a cb project and C::B crashes? I have had problems with remove files from a project, but now with adding... :?
Could you please describe a bit more in details what you are doing?
Thanks.
Best wishes,
Michael
