Can't debug my console app

[superbaby98]

Hi,
Thanks for the great job. I really love the debugger pane in CL. I've tried some simple codes and the debugger(gdb) works fine, but while I build a console application which is much more complex and start debugging, gdb reports an error "Asynchronous execution not supported on this target.", and can't not continue. I don't know what's wrong, as I have the same version of gdb works fine while debugging the same application in CodeBlocks. My CL revision: 3681, running on WindowsXP. Could anybody help? Thanks.

gdb reports an error "Asynchronous execution not supported on this target."

Please post here the complete debugger log from codelite.

How to do that?

- before debugging, clear the debugger pane (there is a little red X button on the LEFT side of the 'Debug' pane - click it)
- tick the little checkbox that says: 'enable debugger full logging' - it is on top of the 'Debug' pane
- start debugging your code
- when you see the error, copy / paste here the entire log that you got

Here is the log:

Some comments:
1) codelite does not use the gdb in the same way as code-blocks - codelite uses the MI interface, while code-blocks is using the CLI (AFAIK, this is about to change since codeblocks is moving to the new MI interface as well)
2) the problem with command you are running is that you are trying to run it in the background '&' - is this really necessary? I suspect that if you remove the '&' at the end of the command gdb will be able to debug it.

Yes, it's completely unnecessary to append the '&' sign, remove the char and it works. thanks very much!
