CGDB 0.6.1 Released ------------------- Downloading: Go to http://cgdb.sourceforge.net/download.shtml for download link and instructions. This new version contains the following changes: * An improvement for tab completion support. With certain versions of GDB, an extra line "server complete ..." would be added to the list of possible completions. This is no longer added. I believe this would only happen with really old versions of GDB. * Improved tab completion support in readline for quoted data. For instance tab completing C++ member functions like b 'foo::b<tab> will now produce b 'foo::bar()'. * Improved tab completion support. This comes in 2 forms. First, CGDB honors the readline variable rl_completion_query_items. If the number of completions is greater than this variable, then the user will be asked if they want the completion to happen. Second, after each page of completions, the user will be asked if they want more completions to be displayed or not. * Thanks to Steve Folta for sending in a patch which added support in CGDB for configuring the syntax colors. The colors used to be hard coded and could not be changed. Now just use the ":highlight" command to change the default colors. There is a new section in the manual called "CGDB highlighting groups" that describes the new functionality. * Again, thanks to Steve Folta for getting CGDB to run on terminals with background colors besides black. CGDB used to paint the terminal background color black regardless of what it was. Now it respects the background color. This feature only works when linked to ncurses. If you have curses, CGDB will force the background black. * CGDB broke it's terminal resizing functionality in cgdb-0.6.0. This is now working again. The bug was introduced while bringing readline into the same address space as CGDB. * The man page now get's installed when 'make install' is done. Enjoy, The CGDB Team |
