You could ask on an open watcom list if open watcom interacts with gdb, and if anyone has actually used that combination. I suggest that you check out the debugger that comes with Open Watcom. I will file an enhancement request against gdb to add support for open watcom. It is a lot of work to add support for a new compiler; someone would have to volunteer to do this work. Open Watcom is licensed under the Sybase Open Watcom Public License, which is an OSI-approved open source license. So I think it would be reasonable to consider adding support for this compiler, if a volunteer steps up. Michael C
