How To Debug Using GDB [message #71980]

Hi,

I'm having a hard time trying to debug from inside Eclipse
using MinGW on Windows XP Pro.

When I try to debug I receive the following error:
"No symbol table is loaded. Use the file command"

I have reproduced the FAQ example, it compiles and run
without trouble but I can't debug.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
Eduardo

Check if the path of your executable contains spaces.

This looks really much like you did not compile with debug infos.
Make sure, when you compile, that gcc/g++ have the '-g' switch set!

Hi,

After removing the spaces from the project path and adding the
-g compiler switch I was able to debug my sample project.

Thank you for the help.

Best regards,
Eduardo
