topic Is there a reason that an ancient version of GDB is in use for ltib ? in i.MX Processors https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/Is-there-a-reason-that-an-ancient-version-of-GDB-is-in-use-for/m-p/312132#M40862 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Currently we are having some issues with GDB while trying to debug some C++ code. We have tracked this to a bug in GDB 6. GDB 6.6 is an ancient version. Are there known problematic issues with a more modern (say within the last 5 years) version of GDB that prevents it from being used ? If someone has used a more modern GDB version, should it be possible to simply port and add it as an ltib package ?</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 07 Apr 2014 21:23:29 GMT mattcompton 2014-04-07T21:23:29Z Is there a reason that an ancient version of GDB is in use for ltib ? https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/Is-there-a-reason-that-an-ancient-version-of-GDB-is-in-use-for/m-p/312132#M40862 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Currently we are having some issues with GDB while trying to debug some C++ code.

I have ported and used GDB 7.2 to LTIB before. It's actually fairly trivial. I can't find my old spec file though.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 07 Apr 2014 22:32:57 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/Is-there-a-reason-that-an-ancient-version-of-GDB-is-in-use-for/m-p/312133#M40863 KursadOney 2014-04-07T22:32:57Z Re: Is there a reason that an ancient version of GDB is in use for ltib ? https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/Is-there-a-reason-that-an-ancient-version-of-GDB-is-in-use-for/m-p/312134#M40864 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Matt,</P><P>Kursad have give you reply.</P><P>Hope this can help you.</P><P>Best Regards</P><P>Dan</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 14 Oct 2014 07:20:11 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/Is-there-a-reason-that-an-ancient-version-of-GDB-is-in-use-for/m-p/312134#M40864 Rita_Wang 2014-10-14T07:20:11Z
