Forgive me if this problem has been addressed elsewhere, but I've spent
considerable time searching the news group and bugzilla and found nothing.
I installed the latest CDT under Eclipse 2.1 on Windows XP Professional,
with MinGW and gdb 5.2.1. I can build the "Hello, World" program okay, but
when I attempt to run the debugger, it immediately aborts with the pop up
dialog:
The execution of program is suspended because of error.
Error creating process C:Documents and SettingsdavidpMy
DocumentsworkspaceHelloWorldhello.exe, (error 193)
As you can see, backslashes are not getting escaped properly. Is there a
preference, or something, that needs to be set somewhere?
Thanks

Mikhail,
Yes, the Debugger is set to "Cygwin GDB Debugger". The gdb path
is "C:\MinGW\bin\gdb.exe".

I don't think that this happens because of backslashes. This message is
returned by gdb. Try to debug it from command line.

I invoked gdb from the command line on my executable, and it
issues the error 193 and then immediately hangs.
So, the problem is indeed gdb related.
Do you happen to know what causes error 193? Is it something to
do with an unrecognized executable format, or something like that?
The executable that I am debugging is simply the "hello,world" example
from the tutorial. It was compiled and
linked with "g++" version 3.2.3, which comes with MinGW. It runs
okay by itself, so, it should be quite acceptable to gdb.

I discovered that the problem only occurs if the executable is within the
"C:\documents and settings" folder, or sub-folder there of. gdb works fine
if the target executable is moved elsewhere.
I found in the gdb source where this error is emitted. It is the error code
from calling the Windows "CreateProcess" API function. gdb first transforms
the path by calling "cygwin_conv_to_win32_path". Evidently, the
path is somehow corrupted. The error message prints out the path prior
to being transformed. I don't have any means to debug gdb itself, so
I am not able see what exactly is being passed to CreateProcess to
cause this error.

Most like the problem is due to the spaces in the path name.

No, I checked that already. Spaces don't seem to be a problem if the
target executable is in another directory.
