Hello All,
Since I mostly do my main Lazarus stuff under Linux, I have just now
come to the conclusion that under Windows (win98se), with gdb (6.2.1)
enabled, clicking on run or F9 causes the code to get compiled, but it
doesn't run. If I disable gdb (no debugger at all) everything is fine,
the program compiles and runs. I was aware people had problems with
debugging on windows, but going back a few months I don't recall
programs not running at all. This is with svn Lazarus from about three
weeks ago as well as with yesterdays svn #8612. Checking at:
http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/ , I see that the latest version is 6.4,
but by the looks of it is available only for Linux. Does anybody know
where one could the 6.4 version for Windows ? I really don't want to
bother with the whole thing of installing Cygwin or MinGW on my Windows
just to get a debugger. Maybe somebody with Cygwin or MinGW installed
could port gdb, and post it somewhere for Lazarus users. Would 6.4 or
something higher then 6.2.1 even help ? Should I enter this as a bug ?
Does anyone have any suggestions ? (and no, I don't want to feed Gates
even more money for XP, I think he's got enough)
George.
