On Debian 8 (amd64)
libgtk-2.24.25-3 libglib-2.42.1-1
I have a .c file opened in geany. I click on the `debug` tab in the lower left corner. Over on the right, I click the arrow to run. Geany crashes.
I set a breakpoint in the file. Do everything mentioned above. Geany crashes.
Both geany and the plugin were installed from the Debian 8 repo.
Should I build geany and the plugin from source? Install from backports? Any suggestions how I might get the debugger working?
Do you mean the "debugger" plugin or "scope"? The first one does work for me, the latter one makes geany hanging (https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins/issues/433).
I've got the same problem. I'm working on a Mac. Did you manage to solve the problem?
Funny that you mention it...
I hadn't done much coding for a while.. a week ago I tried this plug-in again. As I recall, geany froze (or crashed) when I hit step.
I tried again after reading your comment. I couldn't reproduce the crash.
I'm using Debian 9.
@andreygursky "Debugger", gdb selected.
I'll use the plug-in more often now in the future. If I can reproduce the problem, I'll be sure to document right away.
Thanks again for geany.
@andy5995: did you have this problem again in the meantime?
Closed #491.
I have not. Probably operator error the first time I tried it, when I originally reported it. I didn't set the target binary or something silly like that.
