Title: Debugging doesn't work any more.
Post by: jarro_2783 on August 28, 2006, 09:25:07 am

I can't debug any programs. It used to work and now since I formatted my computer and installed the latest version of code blocks it doesn't work. Here is a screenshot of what I mean.

The problems are the two lines

Quote

No source file named C:/programming/programs/test-debug/main.cpp.
No source file named C:/games/freedom/game/prjfreedom/src/engine/win32/win32_filesystem.cpp.

The first line is the break point I have got which you can see in the screenshot. The second line is an old breakpoint from a project I had open just before this one and then closed, I don't know why that's there.
The main problem is it doesn't seem to be finding the file and breaking where I want it to.

I did turn debugging on with -g, and it works if I use gdb straight up.

Mind sharing some more info, like your programs versions (gcc, gdb)?

oh sorry, I installed the latest mingw by downloading all the packages separately.

gcc - 3.4.5
gdb 5.2.1
C::B - august 27th nightly.

I think that's all.

gdb 5.2.1

Get gdb 6.3 (http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/gdb-6.3-2.exe?download)...

thanks, it worked.
Any idea why they don't have that on their download page?

Have what? The link I posted comes from the MinGW download page. It's at the bottom of the page where it says "Snapshot".

ok, I missed that. I got it from higher up where it is listed under "current".

I've been having the same problem since last week, and all I've done is install nightlies.
MinGW 5.0.3
 - gcc 3.4.2 (should I get 3.4.5 candidate?)
 - gdb 6.3
CodeBlocks Version 1.0 revision 2918 ()   gcc 3.4.5 Windows/unicode


I created two console application projects (test & test2), and now breakpoints seem to work for these projects (don't know why they didn't work before).

I still get "no source file named x" warnings from all projects with breakpoints which I have opened since codeblocks started (even closed ones!), and I have to open these projects, remove breakpoints, and the warnings are gone.

Simple example with 2 console application -projects both with one breakpoint.

I still have these issues after clean-installing gcc 3.4.5 (with gdb 6.3.2). I also have one project in which breakpoints don't work at all, but I haven't found a way to recreate such project. No breakpoints seem to be cleaned after closing a project, so all breakpoints in closed files are still registered to gdb, resulting to "no source file named" errors.

While no one seemed to be interested, I took a few screenshots. Is this really the intended behaviour?

Two console-applications with both one breakpoint:

Closing the other console-application, re-debugging, breakpoint from the closed project is still listed:

we will get to the debugger, recently codecompletion got high attention.

Could you please file all these issus with attachments to the berlios project page, well the bug tracker that is.

many thanks.
