Created attachment 279941 [details] The Resume, Step in, Step over buttons greyed out I use Eclipse IDE for Java Developers Version: 2018-12 (4.10.0) Build id: 20181214-0600 I installed CDT plugins. But, the Resume, Step in, Step over buttons greyed out when I debug the C++ code. Attached are the detailes.
Hi @Gary, The reason that resume/etc are greyed out is that there is nothing selected in the Debug view that is resumable/etc. Please expand the "Debug 1 [C/C++ Application" and select a thread, process or frame. That said, CDT should be selecting something automatically when it suspends and the fact it isn't may mean that launching is failing. If this is the case I will need some more info to be able to start to resolve. You have reported being on Mac, as your screenshot seems to match, but I don't have a Mac to try it out on. What I need to know is if GDB is working properly independent of Eclipse, or if it is the Eclipse <-> GDB integration that is failing.
"Please expand the "Debug 1 [C/C++ Application" and select a thread, process or frame." I clicked on the "Debug 1 [C/C++ Application". But, it does not show a thread, process or frame. GDB is working properly independent of Eclipse. I can use it as command line debugger. How do I figure out the Eclipse <-> GDB integration that is failing? Where do I find the log?
The GDB MI traces are hidden by default, they can be turned on in preferences. Have a look at https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/NewIn92#Hide_gdb_traces_by_default If you can include the traces console I can try to diagnose what has gone wrong.
