Building GDB

For Windows

A msys Environment with MinGW is required to build the GDB on Windows.
If it is missing download [sourceforge.net] and install it to your system.

Building

• Go to qt-creator/dist/gdb
• The directory has 3 Makefiles: linux, osx and mingw. Use the one that corresponds to your host os.
• In case you need additional targets, edit the line starting with ‘targets=’ in the Makefile.

Shipping

• Extract qtcreator-gdb-<gdb version>-<host>.tar.gz

Testing

• When the GDB prints “23” everything works fine.
