This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
When I debug a project (pty) after I click Step Into I see only: -----------------8<----------------- This log is saved to: /tmp/gdb-cmds2251851636940572644.log NB build: 201609300101 (gdb) -----------------8<----------------- in Debugger Console. It should be possible to print more verbose debugger initialization log (/tmp/gdb-cmds2251851636940572644.log) to give user a clue what happens. Which symbol table is loaded, which additional features were activated etc.
WORKAROUND: launch netbeans with flag: -J-Dcnd.gdb.trace.console
