It works well, and at present it is for me the *one and only* solution to debug gcc compiled code on windows! I also tried DDD on cygwin but it is not that reliable. > The real question is: Is it worth it? Does anyone really care anymore? YES YES YES!!!! I am building insight from CVS frequently to run on windows. Beside of the stack dump problem in gdb 6.x itself it works really great!!! I use Insight on cygwin to debug mingw code all day! > At one time I considered branching, dumping all the Tcl code (assigned > to Red Hat) and rewriting in some form of gtk (all new code assigned to > FSF).
