Description Rob L 2007-04-16 15:06:46 UTC

Version:           3.4.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 4.1.0 
OS:                Linux

I frequently get a dialog with the following content:

The exception is: MI type error
The MI response is: ^done

In general gdb seems to generate lots of error messages (eg. could not access memory address at ...).  All the error dialogs this generates can be a bit annoying.  Could kdevelop show these messages in the gdb panel rather than the pop-up (or have an option to do this)?

I'm using gdb 6.6.

I haven't seen any of those popup messages for a long time (read since last year). Are you sure you don't have any optimizations activated when building your application?

Comment 2 Rob L 2007-04-16 16:31:15 UTC

yes, no optimisations.

I think the ^done often appears if I kill the debugged application whilst it is rebuilding, but also at other times.

gdb sometimes gets very confused watching variables and generates a whole load of errors.  Restarting gdb and the application will usually fix this for a while.

haven't seen this with kdev4 yet, assuming its fixed. Please re-open if its reproduceable with kdevelop4.

I *have* seen this error in kdev4. However I have no clue on steps to reproduce...
