The Zeus Workspace, Debugger menu launched the GDB debugger, and that debugger should work with any compiler that can produce DWARF debug information.

With the debugger running it can then be controlled using the resulting Debugger Control dialog:

C Language Debugging Example
Consider the following test.c single file application:

Code: Select all

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  printf("Hello world!\n");

  for (int i = 0; i < argc; ++i)
  {
      printf("%d: => %s\n", i, argv[i]);
  }

  return 0;
}

Assuming the GCC compiler has been installed, the compiler details found in the C/C++ Document Type need to be changed to be changed to be:

Code: Select all

gcc -ggdb "$fn" -o "$fb".exe

With the test.c file active the Compiler, Compile menu will run this compiler command line:

Code: Select all

gcc -ggdb test.c -o test.exe

That command line will produce a test.exe file containing DWARF symbolic information.

And with the test.c file active the Workspace, Debugger menu will run the GDB compiler for that test.exe file as shown below:

D Language Debugging Example
Consider the following test.d single file application:

Code: Select all

import std.stdio;

void test(int index)
{
    writeln("Hello: ", index);
}

void main()
{
    writeln("Hello, World!");

    for (int i = 0; i < 10  ; ++i)
    {
        test(i);
    }
}

Assuming the LDC compiler has been installed, the compiler details found in the D Document Type need to be changed to be changed to be:

Code: Select all

ldc2.exe -gdwarf "$fn"

With the test.d file active the Compiler, Compile menu will run this compiler command line:

Code: Select all

ldc2.exe -gdwarf test.d

That command line will produce a test.exe file containing DWARF symbolic information.

And with the test.d file active the Workspace, Debugger menu will run the GDB compiler for that test.exe file as shown below:
