Thanks Maurice,
I had seen the article before and it is what I want to do. The author uses GDB
to attach to a process. Since Dev-C++ is built over GDB it should be able to
do the same thing. By attaching a running process I can switch back and forth
between java and C++ IDEs.
Does Dev-C++ pass commands to GDB much like a command line? Or does it call
low level functions directly? If it is the first one then maybe I could modify
the code to simply pass the "attach <PID>" to GDB. I don't relish the idea of
building and modifying a large program for such a small change but I might do
it when I had some free time. If it means learning a large complex interface
than I will just use VC++.
If anyone knows the answer to these questions I would appreciate any info.
Thanks,
Kevin
