Dev-C++ versions: all with TDM-GCC compiler

  • Problem:

    Posted by sam — 2012-01-14 (in reviews):
    i cant seem to get the debugging to work ,it just keep saying no gdb file

gdb.exe and gdb-server.exe are compiled with 64-bit compiler, so they won't work on 32-bit windows like Windows XP and some of Windows Vista, Windows 7.

  • How to fix it:
    • Compile gdb.exe for x86 and save it as gdb32.exe
    • Do the same thing with gdb-server
    • Compiler set TDM-GCC 4.6.1 32-bit should use gdb32.exe as default debugging executable

    Fixed. I've added gdb from the x86 TDM install and called it gdb32.exe. The default 32-bit profile for TDM-GCC x64 will use it.
