[Mingw-w64-public] GDB version information for ruben vb build
I was using build by Ruben for Mingw W64 for long times with Qt Creator IDE. However from version 2.7 onward it fails to debug using the gdb shipped by it. The reason is most likely that it fails to parse the gdb version information like GNU gdb (rubenvb-4.7.2-release) 7.5.50.20120920-cvs (Or rather wrongly parses the gdb version as 4.7.2 and disables most of gdb features like python support :( ) My question is , is there any guidelines for what gdb version string should look like?

Hi Abir, Qt Project official releases are currently using mingw-builds toolchain releases which includes Python with pretty-printers. Also, mingw-builds project build their own (comprehensive) Qt releases. The toolchain that's likely to be used in 5.1.0 is (I think): http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/project/mingwbuilds/host-windows/releases/4.8.0/32-bit/threads-posix/dwarf/x32-4.8.0-release-posix-dwarf-rev2.7z .

Breakpoint & stepping does work. It did work (and still works) with Qt Creator 2.6.2 last, and not any release after that (i.e QtC 2.7.0, 2.7.1 & 2.8.0 beta) All version of QtC also works with mingw builds gdb. I presently do NOT use mingw builds as sometimes I get strange problems with that dual target build (specifically when I use it with boost.unit_test). I do NOT use Qt, I use Qt Creator just for my c++ projects with cmake or generic makefile project. In the debugger log window it shows UNSUPPORTED GDB VERSION GNU gdb (rubenvb-4.8.0) 7.5.91.20130322-cvs If you look at the code which detect gdb version (extractGdbVersion in debuggerprotocol.cpp ) , it returns wrong gdb version as 4.8.0 rather than 7.5.91 , i.e. wrongly takes the version from bracketed gcc build information). Though that may or may not be the cause of problem. I have tested it with x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc-4.8.0-win64_rubenvb.7z (and also 4.7.2 and others) QtC 2.7.1 (Build on 8th May 2013) QtC 2.7.0 and QtC 2.8.0 beta official builds On Windows 7 and Windows 8 > > > Thanks > > abir > > > > -- Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite It's a free troubleshooting tool designed for production Get down to code-level detail for bottlenecks, with <2% overhead.

Re: [Mingw-w64-public] GDB version information for ruben vb build (Ruben Van Boxem)
It seems clear to me that you should submit a patch that fixes this to Qt Project, and also if possible file the boost unit_test issue with the mingw-builds project.
