Having had to recently reinstall Lion OSX I'm having problems debugging programs that previously could be debugged OK. The message I'm now getting is: 'Codelite Failed to locate gdb! at 'gdb'. Can anybody assist with a suggestion as to how to sort this out? I've tried reinstalling Codelite but this didn't solve the issue. Any suggestions would be welcome... Thx

For 'global settings'
Check in Settings... -> Debugger Settings...
Check if gdb if in your PATH (if your path is empty)

gdb path may be overwritten per project settings:
Check in your project setting :
Common settings : Debugger

Hi Jarrod42

Thx for Ur reply. I solved the problem by reinstalling Apple Command Line Tools. Clearly these do not come as standard with the Lion OS ! :)
