Re: [cdt-dev] Renaming gdb 
Thank you. I'll take a look at it. Hopefully, this weekend.

Hi Mikhail,

There is a document describing the current Managed Build System model in
the CDT help at "CDT Plug-in Developer Guide" -> "Programmer's Guide" ->
"Managed Build System Extensibility Guide".  The model I discussed
yesterday is roughly a superset of this model and is described in
bugzilla 115935.

Thanks,
Leo

Leo,

I would be happy to help, but first I need to learn more about the
model. Is there a document(s) that I can read? 

Thanks,
Mikhail

Hi Mikhail, Pierre-Alexandre,

I could see adding the Debugger to the "model".  It doesn't have to be
part of the "tool-chain".  For example, we talked about external
libraries/SDKs being part of the model.  It seems to me that a
tool-chain integrator would normally want to provide/select the

default

debugger for their tool-chain, so it would make sense for information
about a debugger to be provided in the same manner, and available to

all

of CDT.  I would need some help in figuring out where to put the
debugger in the model, and defining the set of attributes and

callbacks

that would fully define a debugger to CDT.

Regards,
Leo

Pierre-Alexandre,

Good timing. Yesterday I asked Doug the same question right after

Leo's

presentation. But we are not sure that the debugger backend's

definition


fits into the description of a tool-chain.
I haven't followed the tool-chain related discussions very actively

and

it
would be nice to hear what the CDT community thinks about it.

Thanks,
Mikhail

Hi Mikhail,

are there also any plan of allowing the gdb tools to be defined as

part

of the toolchain? That would be really nice...

Thanks,

Pierre-Alexandre

Kim,

Yes, this works for me.

However, I'd like to change the name of the executable AND provide

it

with
an initialisation file *automatically*. I know it's not a big deal,

but

I
don't want the user to have to do this. Via plugins, CDT allows you

to

override the name of the compiler and options, so why not the

debugger?


Thanks,

If you just want to use gdb as it normally operates, ie you
don't want to rewrite how Eclipse uses gdb, then you can use
any name for it you want, at least in a Standard Make project.

Go to Run->Debug... Select your Debug Object.  On the
Debugger tab, fill in the new name of your gdb in the "GDB
debugger" field.  FWIW, I am using '/usr/bin/m6811-elf-gdb'
and it works fine.
