:?:
(Lazarus into a Linux system)

When my proyect is running and crashs, only a tipical 'Invalid
floating point operation', for example. I need the line where the code
crashs.

if I wrote in "Debugger Option" this:

- GNU debunger (gdb)
- /usr/bin/gdb (yes, it's here)

But no work properly.


Can you help me?
or
Do you know information about this?

Thanks

Make sure that you don't use a launching application (run parameters)

If this isn't the case what output is there in View-Debugger--Output ?

first thanks to all people that made Lazarus
I think It will be nice to include a working binary of GDB in the
distributions (linux, especially win32). I`ve tested debugging under
win98,XP and linux.
under 98 - not working, at console I see:
"[TDebugManager.DoInitDebugger] A" and message dialog "The launching
application "C:\mingw\bin\gdb.exe" does not exists or is not
executable See Run->Run parameters->local".
under winXP works, (i don`t know how to evaluate variables)
under linux works even better :-)

First I would like debugging in windows to be a bit more stable. If I
think debugging is stable enough (for example you can
add/modify/delete watches and  show stacktrace),  I will release a new
lazarus installer. I will include a working binary of gdb too, of
course.

I deliberately left it out, to lower the chance of getting bug reports
about these known issues.
