Unlike the original poster, I'm on FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE for i386. I've been using ganymede and CDT 5.0.1 via the update site (http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/ganymede/) and was able to get debugging to work, eventually. It was painful to set up and I don't recall my exact steps. I did use the "Other Toolchain" instead of Linux Toolchain, but that shouldn't make a difference, right? Here are the two things that don't seem to be working correctly for me: - Program I/O does not appear in the console, even though a console is allocated when the program starts. I am able to step through code but nothing appears in the console, even if I use fflush(). Online investigation revealed few secrets. - Auto-build does not work as expected. Sometimes when I save files, it will run a "make build" (I gave it the "build" target for incremental builds). Othertimes (more often than not), it fails to do anything when I save changes. I had to disable the auto-build for this project and I have to manually build the project, of which I often forget to do. *** My installed software *** FreeBSD Eclipse SDK 3.4.1.1 (build id: M20080911-1700) CDT GNU Toolchain Build Support 5.0.1.200809120802 CDT GNU Toolchain Debug Support 5.0.1.200809120802 Eclipse C/C++++ Development Tools 5.0.1.200809120802 LR Parser 5.0.1.200809120802 -- Rick C.
