Building GDB

For Windows

A msys Environment with MinGW is required to build the GDB on Windows.
If it is missing "download":http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-inst/mingw-get-inst-20120426/mingw-get-inst-20120426.exe/download 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.
• Run:

  make <s>f Makefile.&lt;linux|osx|mingw&amp;gt;<code>
  
  <br />h3. Shipping 
  <br />* Extract qtcreator-gdb</s>&lt;gdb version&amp;gt;-&lt;host&amp;gt;.tar.gz
  
  == Testing ==
  
  * To test GDB just run the executable and type:<br />
  

  
  python print 23
  
• When the GDB prints "23" everything works fine.
