new Codelite debugger

Post by willliamford35 »

I have installed /usr/bin/llvm-gdb on my M1 mac running the latest version of Ventura. This includes installing the Debug Adapter Client. I find that debugger more complex to use than gdb, and it often drops me into M1 assembly language that is not useful to me. A few clicks to resume debugging gets me back to actual debugging. I have been using Codelite for 14 years and have always been very satisfied until this debugger change. It would be very good if Codelite could return to making gdb available.

Thanks.

The gdb debugger is still there, I did not remove it. Just make sure to select it in your project settings.
Can you share them (the project settings)?

Make sure you have read the HOW TO POST thread

Thanks for your response. It appears that gdb will not install on Ventura with an M1 processor, at least using brew. I will try to install it and use it on a Ventura amd64 system and will let you know my experience.
