Hello friends! This is my first post to this list, so hello to everyone :-)
I searched through the archives prior to posting (and Googled like crazy ;-), but if this particular problem has been discussed previously, and I missed it, I am sorry.
I am trying to get the GeanyDebug plugin to work on my Ubuntu Hardy box with Geany 0.14. My problem is that when I try to set a breakpoint, either specifying a function name or source file line number I get the error message:
"No source file named /path/to/my/source/file.cpp"
When I run gdb from command line in geany everything works great.
So, any ideas anyone?

Welcome!

Hmm, it works fine here. The simplest way is probably to open the appropriate source file in Geany, place the cursor at the function or the source code line where you want to add a break point, and then click on the 'Breaks' button of the debug plugin. The first time, this opens a dialog to directly add a new breakpoint where the filename and the correct position is already filled. You just need to click OK. When adding additional breakpoints, you simply place the cursor again on the appropriate source code line, click on 'Breaks' and then in the opened dialog you click on 'Add' and then you can add it.
HTH, Enrico

That is exactly what I am trying to do :-)
It doesn't work that way, and it doesn't work if I specify another line or function name manually either.
Since last time I have updated to Ubuntu Intrepid and I am now using the geany-package from the intrepid repository (still 0.14) with the debugger-plugin built from source (of course). The problem persists though. It doesn't matter if I specify a source-path to the source under the environment path either.
I've include a screen shot of the error message.
How ever I have now worked out that the problem is indeed there when I run gdb manually at the command line as well (which I didn't think initialy).
(gdb) b ~/c++/wikifind_rev/wikifind_rev.cpp: 85 No source file named ~/c++/wikifind_rev/wikifind_rev.cpp.
So I guess that the problem is related to gdb rather that the geany debugger-plugin.
And yes, I have checked my search paths and tried severaly diferent ways to specify the path: ~/ and /home/micke/ andso on.

Just dropping a line to tell you that I managed to get it working now. I changed my build options from:
g++ -Wall -o "%e" "%f"
to:
g++ -Wall -g -o "%e" "%f"
It seems I had forgot to put the -g flag in with the build options ( i just put it in the compile options)
And it's working like a charm now! As to be expected it was my own damn fault :-)
