From: Scott Seidman on 9 Apr 2008 20:06 I installed the full version of MinGW studio on an XP box. I like it, but I can't for the life of me see how to invoke the debugger, and quite a bit of web searching doesn't seem to help. The only non-disabled option in the Debug menu is "quickwatch", and I don't get how that works, either. Any suggestions. gdb does seem to be there -- Scott Reverse name to reply Hak mir nisht ken tshaynik

In my case, just type gdb a.exe in MS-DOS, where a.exe is your executable. Because I use Emacs to edit my code, compilation and debugging has become very easy. In emacs, just type the command M-x gdb.
