Hi everyone,
I'm new to this list, and i had a question to pose. Is it possible
to add new debugger interfaces to Xcode? I've figured out how to
add a new compiler, and i'd like to be able to debug the generated
apps through Xcode.
I've added compiler support for MinGW (since MW has killed cross
compiling/debugging). I want to debug remotely on a windows box
from inside of Xcode. The SSH remote debugging can be made to work
like this, however, Xcode insists on using unix-style paths on the
windows machine. I would also have to make some sort of proxy-style
application to replace the real GDB on windows so that the loaded
application would run in the context of the logged-in users desktop
as opposed to the non-existant desktop of the SSH session. I
suppose i could translate the paths on the fly from the gdb-proxy-
app, and i've resigned myself to doing this, but i thought i would
check first.
I didn't know compiler addins were possible until i saw that IBM was
doing it and subsequently made one myself, so i figured it was worth
a shot to check on the possibility of doing a debugger addin this way.
Ultimately, i would like to do something much nicer and less hackish
while maintaining my ability to set breakpoints and step through etc.
in Xcode. So i'm open to any ideas. The paragraph above was just
some simple brainstorming on the subject.
Thanks!
Brandon
