bernard,
I have not used XCode and gdb too much. I think they have some
limitations as other IDE and debuggers.
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
