This issue shows up in the Oct 2018 nightly build (info says svn11499, but svn number appears to be not updated since previous nightly BTW) for the first time in terms of nightly builds. It is OK in the Aug 2018 nightly build.

  1. compile program with debug flags
  2. establish a break point (red point in edior) which should be hit by the run
  3. run program in debug mode
  4. upon break this break point, the break points frame shows all kinds of break points
  5. right click on one of them ... nothing happens (any more; it should show a drop down with options to procede with it)

This is particularly uncomfortable for, e.g., watch break points, which now can be changed in the debugger console only.

    I can not reproduce this bug.
    I'm using biplab's testing 64-bit version:Re: The 08 October 2018 build (11499) is out. under Windows 7.

    What version of GDB do you use?

      It will be good if you can test with the build used by the poster. It might be different...

    Can you show a screenshot at step 4? I'm not sure what the problem is really.

      Sure:

      • Step 4. should mean that when a break point is hit, the break points frame looks as in the jpg attached: a list with a break point and a data break point. Any list item used to be right-clickable to show a drop-down with break point change options.
      • To be on the safe side, I just downloaded the Oct 2018 CB nightly again (CB_20181008_rev11499_win64.7z) with the splash screen signature svn build rev 11499 (2018-10-07 09:45:50) gcc 5.1.0 Windows/unicode - 64 bit. Judging by signature I was working with the latest Oct 2018 nightly release.
      • I am using GNU gdb (GDB) 7.6.1 on Win10.

    Do you see a context menu when the debugger is stopped? What happens if you disable the drag scroll plugin if you have it enabled?

      Great - disabling the mouse drag scroll plugin solved the issue! ... not sure what it is really good for, but the plugin must have been active for years now.

      Many thanks for looking into that! Best to close this ticket which I cannot do I guess.

        There was a recent change which affects how right click works...
