I am trying to step through my program and I get the following message from Code::Blocks
Selecting target:
Debug
ERROR: You need to specify a debugger program in the debuggers's settings.
(For MinGW compilers, it's 'gdb.exe' (without the quotes))
(For MSVC compilers, it's 'cdb.exe' (without the quotes))
Unfortunately, I cannot figure out where I would type in gdb.exe.
1) Start CodeBlocks 2) Select the Settings menu 3) Select the Debugger... option in the Settings menu 4) In the Debugger Settings window, select the Default category under GDB/CDB debugger 5) You should see a field named "Executable path:" in the Debugger settings window.
Click on (Debug-> Next line) or press F7 for line by line debugging.
You can manually terminate debuggin process by pressin the red "X" beside the "clean and rebuild" button. That will terminate the debugger process.
gdb.exe is a legitimate executable file developed by Runtime Software. This process is known as GetDataBack for FAT Data Recovery and it belongs to the software GetDataBack. It is commonly stored in C:\Program Files.
In the Code::Blocks IDE, navigate Settings -> Debugger
In the tree control at the right, select Common -> GDB/CDB debugger -> Common.
Then in the dialog at the left you can enter Executable path and choose Debugger type = GDB or CDB, as well as configuring various other options.
executable path
to find the address to gdb32.exe
CodeBlock -> MinGW -> bin -> gdb32.exe (locate it and double click on it)
