The bug is still reproducible if the source file is placed in non-project directory (after add existing item).

Comment 6 Egor Ushakov 2009-12-24 07:34:55 UTC 
the problem is that MinGW stores relative paths to files like:
C:/Users/egor/Documents/NetBeansProjects/Welcome_25/../Welcome_24/welcome.h
and
setting a breakpoint in an absolute path:
C:/Users/egor/Documents/NetBeansProjects/Welcome_24/welcome.h
does not work.
Comment 7 Egor Ushakov 2010-03-15 14:05:46 UTC 
there is a workaround:
when adding files to project set "store path as absolute" (not relative)
Comment 8 Egor Ushakov 2010-03-15 14:12:47 UTC 
there is a workaround:
when adding files to a projects set "store path as absolute" (not relative)

Comment 10 Alexander Pepin 2010-03-16 13:15:31 UTC 
The workaround works. There is an issue with long paths then but the main bug can be downgraded.
Comment 11 Egor Ushakov 2011-01-21 12:01:35 UTC 
this looks like a bug in gdb implementation, now there is one more workaround:
use -J-Dgdb.breakpoints.shortpaths=true
to send short paths to gdb.
