I am using the latest release of NetBeans IDE 6.5 (Build 200811100001), SunStudio (Sun Ceres 2008/10) compiler, and gdb 6.8. My development host is a SPARC Solaris 10 zone. My desktop is a Windows XP laptop. I am able remotly build and execute the standard "Fractal_1" project that is shipped with SunStudio. When I try to debug the poject, the application just runs (inside of gdb). Any breakpoints I have set are ignored, and I am unable to "Pause" or interrupt the run. The following appears in my debug console: Running "/opt/SUNWspro/bin/dmake -f Makefile CONF=Debug" in /opt/SUNWspro/NetBeansProjects/Fractal_1 dmake: defaulting to parallel mode. See the man page dmake(1) for more information on setting up the .dmakerc file. h235 --> 1 job h235 --> 2 jobs /opt/SUNWspro/bin/dmake -f nbproject/Makefile-Debug.mk SUBPROJECTS= .build-conf /opt/SUNWspro/bin/dmake -f nbproject/Makefile-Debug.mk dist/Debug/SunStudio-None/fractal_1 `dist/Debug/SunStudio-None/fractal_1' is up to date.

Please wait.... Wall clock time = 206.923847 seconds The fractal_1 program completes successfully, but never allows me to interrupt or trigger on any breakpoints. I have tried a precompiled version of gdb as well as one I compiled myself. Both behave in the same manner. I can't see what gdb commands it is executing, so I am not sure where to go from here.
I'm afraid it is an issue of gdb & ss compilers interoperability. Can you try to log into the system and try gdb in command line. Another option is to try GNU compilers if you have them on your SPARC system.
Thank you for the quick response. It did not seem to make any difference. I switched my project to use the GNU profile, and confirmed the releases of the develoment server: C GCC 3.4.6 G++ GCC 3.4.6 Fortran GCC 3.4.6 make SunStudio Debugger gdb 6.8 I did a "Clean and Build" and then debugged the project with the same results. The program ran fine, but would not let me interrupt it or trigger my breakpoints: Running "/opt/SUNWspro/bin/dmake -f Makefile CONF=Debug clean" in /opt/SUNWspro/NetBeansProjects/Fractal_1 dmake: defaulting to parallel mode.

Please wait.... Wall clock time = 291.843168 seconds I rebuilt the project using the SunStudio model, and ran the gdb from the command-line with the same command-line arguments that Netbeans is using. It debugged the code just fine. Below is my terminal session: # /usr/local/bin/gdb --nw --silent --interpreter=mi (gdb) file /opt/SUNWspro/NetBeansProjects/Fractal_1/dist/Debug/SunStudio-Solaris-Sparc/fractal_1 &"file /opt/SUNWspro/NetBeansProjects/Fractal_1/dist/Debug/SunStudio-Solaris-Sparc/fractal_1\n" ~"Reading symbols from /opt/SUNWspro/NetBeansProjects/Fractal_1/dist/Debug/SunStudio-Solaris-Sparc/fractal_1..." ~"done.\n" ^done (gdb) break 212 &"break 212\n" ~"Breakpoint 1 at 0x12184: file fractal.cc, line 212.\n" ^done (gdb) run &"run\n" ~"Starting program: /opt/SUNWspro/NetBeansProjects/Fractal_1/dist/Debug/SunStudio-Solaris-Sparc/fractal_1 \n" ~"\n" ~"Breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0xffbffaec) at fractal.cc:212\n" ~"212\t printf(\"Calculating.

Please wait....\\n\");\n" ~"213\t // tracking wall time\n" ~"214\t double startwtime = 0.0;\n" ~"215\t double endwtime;\n" ~"216\t startwtime = wallTime();\n" ^done (gdb) break 215 &"break 215\n" ~"Breakpoint 2 at 0x121a0: file fractal.cc, line 215.\n" ^done (gdb) cont &"cont\n" ~"Continuing.\n" Calculating. Please wait.... ~"\n" ~"Breakpoint 2, main (argc=1, argv=0xffbffaec) at fractal.cc:216\n" ~"216\t startwtime = wallTime();\n" ^done (gdb) print startwtime &"print startwtime\n" ~"$1 = 0" ~"\n" ^done (gdb) quit &"quit\n" So, it looks like it should work. What commands is it sending to the gdb? Is there a session log that is kept somewhere? It is like a 'run' is being performed instead of a 'start'.
Another interesting bit of information. If I create a function breakpoint (say in main), then the debugger stops in the function and allows me to step through the program. It shows me the active line, and allows me to examine the program variables. If I set a line breakpoint (thorugh the dialog box or by picking the line) it is ignored. Both of these types of breakpoints appear to work from the gdb command-line. Is the breakpoint syntax you are using correct for line breakpoints? Again, it would be helpful if you could expose the terminal session to the developer. In other IDE's I have seen, the debugger prompt(session) is available (for viewing and command-line entering) in a terminal window.
looks like a duplicate of the issue 158570. Can you please try fresh Netbeans 6.5 without updates?
Here is a pointer to the article, that explains how to enable Debugger Console: http://cnd.netbeans.org/docs/articles/debugging/Review_NikMolchanov/NetBeansC_C++DevelopmentPack5.5_Debugging.html#7._Debugger_Console._ There is a Netbeans option: -J-Dgdb.console.window=true
Thanks for the link to enabling the debug console. It makes me feel much more comfortable seeing the commands being executed. It is turely awesome! Now I can execute gdb commands you may not yet directly support. It does not appear to be the same issue as 158570. In the excerpt below, it has the full name as the correct path: 108-exec-run < /tmp/gdbFifo2531.fifo > /tmp/gdbFifo2570.fifo 2>&1 109info proc 106^done,bkpt= {number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="del",enabled="y",addr="0x00012184",func="main",file="fractal.cc",fullname="/opt/SUNW spro/NetBeansProjects/Fractal_1/fractal.cc",line="212",times="0"} 107^done,register-names= ["g0","g1","g2","g3","g4","g5","g6","g7","o0","o1","o2","o3","o4","o5","sp","o7","l0","l1","l2","l3","l4","l5","l6","l7" ,"i0","i1","i2","i3","i4","i5","fp","i7","f0","f1","f2","f3","f4","f5","f6","f7","f8","f9","f10","f11","f12","f13","f14" ,"f15","f16","f17","f18","f19","f20","f21","f22","f23","f24","f25","f26","f27","f28","f29","f30","f31","y","psr","wim"," tbr","pc","npc","fsr","csr","d0","d2","d4","d6","d8","d10","d12","d14","d16","d18","d20","d22","d24","d26","d28","d30"] 108^running I did notice that the "times" value is "0". Should this value be a "1"? I uninstall and reinstall, but that will take me some time. I will provide an update tonight.
I uninstalled Netbeans 6.5 and all its supporting applications. I removed the netbeans directory under "Progam Files". I then installed the full IDE package. I was careful not to update anything. I changed the netbeans.conf file to include the gdb debugger console. It did not ignore my breakpoints! So, it seems to be a similar problem, though the filename in the breakpoint text looks correct to me (and the "times" value is the same also): 127^done,bkpt={number="5",type="breakpoint",disp="keep",enabled="y",addr="0x000121ac",func="main",file="fractal.cc",fullname="/opt/SUNWspro/NetBeansProjects/Fractal_1/fractal.cc",line="219",times="0"} Let me know if I can do anything else to isolate the issue. Thank you for you assistance.
The regression happened after fixing issue #151761
can you please attach the full gdb-log here
As you said breakpoints works fine on ide without updates. What about pause?
Created attachment 77207 [details] Pause failure GDB Debug Log
Created attachment 77208 [details] GDB Debugger log after AutoUpdate update
Created attachment 77209 [details] GDB Debugger log after final update
I tried to "Pause" the applciation, and it would not be interrupted. The first Debugger log is attachment(Fri Feb 20 17:53:00 +0000 2009: DebugerLog(PauseFaile).txt). If I set an explicit breakpoint it would work fine. I then did a Check or Updates, and updated the AutoUpdate. After the Netbeans restarted, my breakpoints again worked. The second attachment (Fri Feb 20 18:08:00 +0000 2009: DebuggerLog(after AutoUpdate).txt) is the GDB debugger log for this session. Again, I could not "Pause" the application, but the breakpoints seemed to work. I then did another Check for Updates. It updated the following: Ant [1.2.1 -> 1.2.2] C/C++ [1.4.1 -> 1.4.3] Database [1.3.1 -> 1.3.3] Editing Files [1.2.1 -> 1.2.2] GUI Builder [1.2.1 -> 1.2.2] GlassFish v3 Prelude - JRuby [0.4.1 -> 1.0.2] GlassFish v3 Prelude [0.4.1 -> 1.0.2] Groovy and Grails [1.7.1 -> 1.7.2] Hibernate Support [1.0.1 -> 1.0.2] IDE Platform [1.5.1 -> 1.5.3] JBoss Application Server [1.11.1 -> 1.11.2] Java EE [1.2.1 -> 1.2.3] Java Profiler [1.9.1 -> 1.9.3] Java [1.3.1 -> 1.3.3] Mercurial [1.7.1.42.1 -> 1.7.2.42.1] NetBeans 6.5 [1.2.1 -> 1.2.3] PHP [1.2.1 -> 1.2.3] Platform [1.2.1 -> 1.2.3] RESTful Web Services [1.0.1 -> 1.0.3] Ruby and Rails [0.104.1 -> 0.104.3] SaaS Services Support [1.0.1 -> 1.0.2] Subversion [1.4.1 -> 1.4.2] Visual Mobile Designer [1.3.1 -> 1.3.2] Web Applications [1.2.1 -> 1.2.3] After the Netbeans restarted, my breakpoints failed. The third attachment(Fri Feb 20 18:19:00 +0000 2009: DebuggerLog (after Update).txt) is the GDB Debugger log from this session.
breakpoints problems fixed within the issue 158570
Pause issues will be handled in a separate issue 159061. The rest is a duplicate of the issue 158570. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 158570 ***
As it's a duplicate of the issue #158570 which is also patch3 candidate, this issue is not a patch3 candidate any more.
