Description David Jarvie 2004-02-24 18:18:56 UTC

Version:           3.0 (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:          Linux

I need to set the --nofork option for gdb, since my program is a KUniqueApplication. I can't see how I can specify this. In KDevelop 2, I used to select "Debug with options" (if I remember correctly) to debug the program, which would prompt to enter any gdb options. But this doesn't exist any more in KDevelop 3.0. And the Project Options dialog also doesn't seem to have anywhere to specify this.

I think that perhaps --nofork is a KDE program argument rather than a debugger one. However, even though I entered --nofork in the "Program arguments" field in the Project Options Debugger tab, it didn't show up in the GDB output tab when I started the debug session.

Sorry that one does not work.
use program arguments of the "Run Options" dialog instead.

The original report was in fact about program arguments, not gdb arguments, and that problem does not exist. The "gdb argument" problem is bug 84251. Closing this one.
