I don’t have the ability to recompile GDB. Does anyone have a patched win32 binary I can copy? For that matter does anyone have a Linux binary I can copy?

The problem on the Linux side are the dependencies. I do have a binary copy but it is dynamically linked, thus it is almost guaranteed not to work on your system.

If you have the following libraries installed, my copy might work. Let me know and I can mail it to you (ca. 2.5 MB).

linux-gate.so.1
libreadline.so.5
libncurses.so.5
libm.so.6
libdl.so.2
libc.so.6
libgpm.so.1
ld-linux.so.2

I don't have any handy way to look for them. How about just send it and I'll try
it.
my e-mail (lightly obfuscated) is


bshrop  not@this.junk  uidaho period edu

thank in advance.


I would rely like a Win version if any one else has one

? You mean you don't know :-) Type "man locate" or "man find" for a start. They usually are in /lib.

OK. Are you sure you know how to use gdb?

OK I'm just lazy.

Actually the hindrance is primarily that I have VARY limited access to the systems in question. Thus my interest in a Win32 version.

You can always find binaries for win32 at
http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml
they're not always the latest but you can always go with candidates. Either way, I found that using mingw's gdb with gdc to be the easiest way to make D code, specially that codeblocks has builtin in gdb support which actually lets debug d code from the ide.

1) I was looking for a GDB patched with the D dwarf patch
2) that's a 2 year old post

Even the candidates are from over a year ago.  The only place I know you can get a recent gcc for Windows is from this place here:

   http://inkscape.modevia.com/win32_inkscape_org/

Namely:
   http://inkscape.modevia.com/win32_inkscape_org/mingw411-060525.zip

I've been told that mingw is pretty easy to build from source, but I tried and failed so it's not *that* easy.
