bernard,

I have been using XCode and GDB exclusively on OSX and I've also used GDB on

the commandline in linux all with C++. I can't speak to how well it performs with C, since all my development is in C++. I also develop full time on Win32 using VC6 and VC7.1, and I can say that GDB, as a C++ debugger, can't hold a candle to the Microsoft toolchain. Using VC6 it's easy to debug anything I want, while GDB is just flat out frustrating, it's slow, it's buggy as hell, and it's just plain simpler to use printf in your code (IMHO) than to fight with GDB. At least that has been my experience.

Cheers

Jim


While discussing on the list, I am playing with XCode and gdb. I must confess they have strange behavior sometimes. The big problem I have is with inline code. I think gcc make some optimisations on these fonctions even in the 'Developpement' build style.

Bernard.
