 Walter, I'd like to do more with GDB, and expand the patch, but since the
DWARF2
 line number info is broke, I can't use GDB to do anything but stack traces
on
 segfaults.  I would appreciate if you would put a higher priority on this
item.
 Although there are still "show stopper" bugs, most of them aren't bugs
people
 run into on a daily basis.  Debugging is something that most people do on
a
 daily basis, so I would argue it should be of high importance.
We Win32 users would certainly like more debug info also :). I wonder why this wasn't the first thing to be developed, seems it would be enourmously helpful from the start. Charlie "John Demme" <me teqdruid.com> wrote in message news:d3sq2d$1094$1 digitaldaemon.com...
 I've finally gotten my GDB patch working.  It's able to demangle most D
symbols,
 but a few weird ones still show up.  Anyway, the announcement (along with
 directions) are here:
 http://dsource.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=734

 Please report bugs on the dsource forum, instead of cluttering up this NG.

how do you get ddbg running for poseidon. it gives me this error on ddbg 4invalid UTF-8 sequence. Is it poseidon or ddbg because it happens in loading the windows dlls. Is there a way to fix it. I'd rather use it with Poseidon than codeblocks becaus of codecompletion and it's like Eclipse but less size so I don't get all those extra programming languages I won't use. Well thanks for your help, Lester L. Martin II

Oops I thought I posted this on DDBG forum. Ignore if you want or answer here.
