debugger doesn't do anything

Post by caibbor »

Nothing happens at all when I click "debug" (no errors, warnings, windows, etc).

Happens in codelite 9.2.0 as well as 10.0.3 (I just updated).

Running MinGW 6.3.0 built for 32 bit (my project is 32 bit) by MinGW-W64 version

The debugger output gives this until I click the "stop debugging" button.

Code: Select all

Using gdbinit file: C:\Users\Antic\AppData\Local\Temp\codelite_gdbinit.txt
Current working dir: D:\home\antic\proj\btech3\codelite
Launching gdb from : ../run
Starting debugger  : C:/mingw-w64/i686-6.3.0-release-posix-dwarf-rt_v5-rev0/mingw32/bin/gdb.exe --command="C:\Users\Antic\AppData\Local\Temp\codelite_gdbinit.txt" --interpreter=mi "../run/btech3_debug"

Code: Select all

python
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, 'C:\Users\Antic\AppData\Roaming\codelite\gdb_printers')

from libstdcxx.v6.printers import register_libstdcxx_printers
register_libstdcxx_printers (None)

from qt4 import register_qt4_printers
register_qt4_printers (None)

from wx import register_wx_printers
register_wx_printers (None)

end
If I type "run" or "step" commands into GDB, I get a dialog box that says "Can't interrupt debuggee process: I don't know its PID!" and then GDB exits with error 193 (error creating process)

I can only recommend to install and try a different debugger.
Also, please enable the debugger log (see my signature)
Make sure you have read the HOW TO POST thread
