Once when I installed Cygwin in order to get the latest insight package, both the new and the old Insight refused to display source view. Projects I have had no problems debugging in the past would only show assembly view. Removing cygwin solved this problem. I recently switched to Windows XP and the same behaviour of not displaying source view is here once again. I have learned that compiling the newest Insight on cygwin is a task obviously targetted at someone with a lot more experience with open source software than me, so I will rather ask you about my problems with the precompiled version. Is the current Insight binary package for cygwin supposed to work (as in display source) on windows xp? And just because I'm curious, does ./configure and make in cygwin using gcc 3.2 work? After I got all the tools it missed, I ended up with a compile error. I just want to know if its doing something wrong, or if ./configure and make simply does not do the job on cygwin.

There has to be a reason for this however, so does anyone have any idea? What dazzles me is that it used to work just perfectly, so there must be something somewhere that is different than before. It used to work without me thinking much of it, I simply launched the program and that was it. Is there however some I might read about in the gdb manual that can bring a solution? I have never needed to read that before because it worked just fine, and I would rather not read it unless it relates at all to the problem of not displaying source. -- Tomas Dahle ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

You may try this: Get a gdb console from the insight view menu and tell gdb about the location of your source directory. Lets say your source files are located in "c:\src" then type on the gdb command line: [gdb] directory /cygdrive/c/src you might need to set your executable again with [gdb] exec-file /cygdrive/c/whereever/foo.exe now you should see your source and insight just works fine.

Ok, since you are still having problems, here are some things you can do to help me (us?) diagnose the problem. 1) Verify that you are using "-g" (or some variation of it) when compiling. (I know, this is a stupid, stupid thing, but it does happen, and it cannot hurt to ask.) If you run "objdump --debug" on the exe, is anything produced? (If you're using dwarf, does "readelf -w" output anything?) 2) If you open a console window and type "list main", does it return the source file list for main? 3) Open a debug window ("tk ManagedWin::open DebugWin" at console prompt). Now select (or enter) "main" from the function combo box. What is output to the debug window? 4) What is the output of "info func main" (or any other function in your program? [Type this at the console window] 5) Also at a console window, what does "tk gdb_loc main" (or any other function in your app) show? 6) Can you describe EXACTLY what you are doing? "I start Insight, select File->SESSION 1, and it does not show main()" or "I start insight with filename on the command line, it starts, but doesn't show main".

There is only one trick to compiling right now, largely because I keep forgetting to "fix" it. If your source directory contains the "tix" directory, REMOVE it before running configure. Here's how I build insight, regardless of host platform: $ cvs co insight+dejagnu [time passes $ ls src/ $ mkdir cygwin <-- or linux or hpux or whatever host I'm on; if I do a cross, I use "cygwin-ppc" or "cygwin-mips-elf" etc $ cd cygwin $ CFLAGS="-g" ../src/configure --prefix=`pwd`/built \ --exec-prefix=`pwd`/built/H-i686-pc-cygwin $ make all-gdb $ make install-gdb That's it. There is no real magic (the tix thing excepted right now). In fact, I'm attempting to configure and build it right now on cygwin using this procedure.

And it built, installed, and ran just fine (except for some stupid "etc not found" error while installing, but it doesn't affect anything).
