Problems encountered during trying out gdb-frontend about gdb-frontend

Thank you for your answers. Unfortunately, I couldn't reproduce the sigsev anymore today, so I am not sure about what it was.

Hello, thank you for your feedback.

• What is having SIGSEGV exactly? Your app or GDB process?

• In DWARF debug info some source lines are not "stoppable at" or some expressions are like "ineffective":
  For example,

/* L:10 */ struct meow meow;
/* L:11 */ meow.count++;
/* L:12 */ meow.type = MEOW_TYPE_CUTE;

in this example if you add a breakpoint at line 10 your "actual breakpoint line" will be line 11, because struct meow meow; line is ineffective (or nexecutable); it is telling the compiler to add PUSH ... instructions as much as sizeof(struct meow) in total size, so it is not a line that's being executed in runtime like others.

• Ctrl+O is not for loading executables. It is a "open source file" dialog. You can load executables with Load Executable button or like file meow.exe on GDB shell.
• Ctrl+O dialog doesn't support file path, you can enter a folder's path and select the file.
• Oh collapsing feature for right bar sections is a feature in my mind however I don't have time for that. That would be good if you can add that feature.

Thank you for your nice words.
