[Geany-Users] debugger not debugging

[j.dunn at piments.com]

HI,

I am having trouble getting geany-scope to step and debug a simple test 
file.

I have applied the patch to fix scope locking up. But when I run the 
executable for debugging I don't get the usual debug functions ( step 
etc ) enabled, only terminate.

I get the impression that it is not connecting to gdb but don't see any 
output showning an error or enabling determination of the problem.

I have no prior experience with this debugger since it used to lock-up. 
Could be finger trouble or something not correctly set up.

Any suggestions of where to look.

thanks.
