Re: Issue with GDB under Cygwin and XP


I compiled the latest gcc and gdb and it now works under cygwin.
The versions I'm using are:

D:\projects\Eclipse\CDT\HelloWorld2\Debug>gcc --version

This GDB was configured as "i686-pc-cygwin".


Thanks for your help.

I'm running under Windows XP and Cygwin.

I ran GDB on a simple C program and captured the output (below).
I have a few questions:

Why can I run the program several times with no errors but as soon as I set a breakpoint at main it gets a SIGSEGV fault?

Why does the backtrace show only addresses?
