Start xcopilot like normal, for me it is:
xcopilot -serial -gdebug &
Click the checkbox on gdb Panel (you need to load that if you don't have it
already -- /usr/local/pilot/gdbpanel).
Start DDD:
ddd --debugger m68k-palmos-coff-gdb myobjectfile
and then in the DDD debug window at the bottom I type my target line:
target pilot /dev/ttyqf
Then I click on my program icon within xcopilot and it stops at the first
line of code. Set my breakpoints and watches. Very cool.
But, I'll admit I haven't done that in a while. You sorta get used to the
quick and dirty nature of gdb, and it is really quite easy with a little
practice.
