[Anjuta-list] Grave problem with the debugger

[Michele Bendazzoli <mickymouse mickymouse it>]

I have a grave problem with the debugger.

After several trials, I end to include the source of my "open_file" 
method directly into the main source code to see if I succeed in 
debugging it.
But, hey, the debugger simply doesn't work!
I try to summarize the steps I made to understand where is my fault or 
if there is a bug.

This is the source code of the main method.

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
   GtkWidget *main_window;
   GtkWidget *view;
   GtkTextBuffer *buffer;
   gchar **contents;
   gsize *length;
   GError **error;
  
   #ifdef ENABLE_NLS
       bindtextdomain (GETTEXT_PACKAGE, PACKAGE_LOCALE_DIR);
       textdomain (PACKAGE);
   #endif
  
   gnome_init (PACKAGE, VERSION, argc, argv);
   glade_gnome_init ();
   set_glade_xml(); //load the xml in the glade_xml global variable
  
   view = glade_xml_get_widget (glade_xml, "textviewsource");
   buffer = gtk_text_view_get_buffer (GTK_TEXT_VIEW (view));
   //pick a random file (autogen.sh) to test the method
   if (g_file_get_contents("home/mickymouse/Projects/pdg/autogen.sh", 
contents, length, error)) 
   {
       buffer = gtk_text_view_get_buffer (GTK_TEXT_VIEW (view));
       gtk_text_buffer_set_text (buffer, *contents, -1);;
   } else {
       gtk_text_buffer_set_text (buffer, "some string here", -1);
   };
  
   /*
    * The .glade filename should be on the next line.
    */
   //comment the next line: use the global variable glade_xml instead
   //xml = glade_xml_new (PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR"/pdg.glade", NULL, NULL);

   /* This is important */
   glade_xml_signal_autoconnect (glade_xml);
   main_window = glade_xml_get_widget (glade_xml, "main_window");
   gtk_widget_show (main_window);

   gtk_main ();
   return 0;
}

1) Close and reopen Anjuta. Open my pdg project.
2) Checked in the compiler setting that there are'nt any optimazation 
and that the debug flag is checked.
3) Shift +F11 to rebuild all.
4) Start the debugger. The debug toolbar now is active.
5) Click in the debug toolbar the "Step Only one istruction" button
6) The terminal windows is open. I click in the window Anjuta to bring 
it to the front.
7) The debug toolbar now is disabled.

The same result is if I set a breakpoint in any line of code and launch 
the debugger with F4.
The debugger correctly stop at the breakpoint but the debug toolbar is 
compitely disabled.

I'm using ubuntu 5.10, on amd64 architecture.

Before i come crazy can anyone give me some hint?

ciao, Michele
