GDB Version 7.12

msys2 mingw32 gcc works just fine in codelite but i get the above with GDB. GBD works fine in msys32 and i can open and call GDB within cmd to get its version. This error has not happened before when using codelite 9.2.0 thru 9.2.4
I have not yet tested it with 9.2.5 and only with 9.2.6 just today.

Just tested the msys2 mingw64 gdb and that one worked just fine. just the 32bit one is not working.....

We can clearly see that gdb started successfully, it crashed during running some python code (probably the pretty printers)
This looks like a bug in gdb, you should report this on the GBD mailing list.

You can try and disable the python commands from CodeLite and start GDB again:
settings->gdb settings->startup commands

and clear that page

Ahh thank you. Removing them did indeed fix the problem. but by removing would that cause anything else not to work correctly?

[eranif]

It's simply is GDB crashing, in more particular, its python built-in interpreter crashed
