Hello all,
I get the following error message when I compile:-
The debugger
"C:\lazarus\mingw\$(TargetCPU)-$(TargetOS)\bin\gdb.e...
does not exist or is not executable.

See Tools -> Option -> Debugger Options.

I have set my compiler options to:-
Target OS:-WinCE
Target CPU:-arm

Checking in the mingw folder there is the following CPU:-
i386-win32

I have installed
Lazarus-1.2.6-FPC-2.6.4-WIN32
Lazarus-1.2.6-FPC-2.6.4-cross-arm-wince-win32

Can anyone help please?

TIA

I have re read the instruction and downloaded the GDB for wince, but
when I compile it shows an error

Debugger Error

Oooops, the debugger entered the erorr state
Save your work now !

Hit Stop, and hope the best, we're pulling the plug.

The debugger could not set a breakpoint in on the application's entry
point.
This may be caused by missing debug info.

The GDB command:
"info address main"
did not return any result.

I dont know about wince much, but...

1) Are your settings ok?
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Debugger_Setup

2) If yes, (in tools / options / debugger > the options grid) try to
change InternalStartBreak  (try ...EntryPoint first)

This changed in 1.4, so if it does not work with 1.2 try trunk, or
wait for 1.4
