I've reported this previously at http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-09/msg00876.html mingw gdb 7 worked fine for me in the meantime. -- Reini Urban -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
gdb 7 port for Cygwin?
Has gdb 7.x been ported to Cygwin yet? I can't use it to debug gcc 4.5 programs (I usually get "line not found" when trying to set a breakpoint): http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.5/changes.html "GCC now generates unwind info also for epilogues. DWARF debuginfo generated by GCC now uses more features of DWARF3 than it used to do and also some DWARF4 features. GDB older than 7.0 is not able to handle either of these, so to debug GCC 4.5 generated binaries or libraries GDB 7.0 or later is needed."
