[GDB] Unable to suspend and resume gdbserver connection

[ivan1979]

Hi Sirs,

Slickedit 2010 v.15  with Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid, i'm trying to debug a embedded app with a ARM target and i use gdberver 7.0.1 and GDB slickedit remote debugging,

I'm able to connect to target and run application but the problem is that when i try to suspend debug (for instance to set a breakpoint, inspect a variable, ...) i cannot anymore to resume connection with target...:

- side target shows msg; input_interrupt count=1 ...
- and GDB log:
Interrupted while waiting for the program.
Give up (and stop debugging it)? (y or n) [answered Y; input not from terminal]
stop

Note: I'm trying codeblocks too and it works fine.

Thanks for your help
Ivan

No news by Slickedit team?

Your set-up is, unfortunately, difficult for us to duplicate.  We don't write embedded apps for ARM targets and so have not been able to reproduce your problem.

What are you setting under Debug > Attach Debugger > Attach to Remote Process... > Remote options tab?  Have you made any gdb configuration changes?

Thank you,

Hi David.

I have noticed similar problems when remote debugging to a process on the same host. Note, not attaching to a process but remote debugging. Do you notice anything weird when you try that?

Cheers,

Hi David,
thanks for your response.
I connect via TCP with embedded ARM host and use gdb and gdbserver 7.0.1 compiled for arm arch.
My set-up in enclosed images files.
Also a my colleague are developing an embedded app with a PowerPC micro and has same my problem.

Thanks for your help
