[cdt-dev] Fwd:Nacl-gdb and eclipse cdt integration

[Doug Schaefer <cdtdoug@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey gang, here is another example of using our debug framework for a
different debugger set up. This is for Google's Native Client API
which lets you download and run native code in a browser in a secure
context.

I've seen this a couple of times now, Android also has some special
commands to run to get going. How much work is it to create a simple
launch configuration type that automates this? I'm thinking this could
be something like what we've done with the managed build. We should be
able to define gdb start-up as a simple extension point with maybe a
little code. Any thoughts on that?

Thanks,
Doug.

It's quite simple, really. You just create a new debug configuration
in your project and do the following:
1) set the path to sel_ldr as the "C/C++ Application" on the main tab
of the debug configuration dialog
2) add any arguments you want to pass to sel_ldr (-d is implied when
you start under gdb) and your nexe on the arguments tap
3) create a command file to tell gdb to load your nexe. Mine only has
1 line, e.g:
nacl-file hw.nexe
3) on the debugger tab, set the path to nacl64-gdb in the "GDB
debugger" field and your file in the "GDB command file" field
After that, you can just start the debug, which launches sel_ldr and
your nexe. once it starts up you can add nacl breakpoints.
