I am not terribly interested in doing this. libgdb.a is an internal

That we have experienced. The IDE build system detects the libgdb version
first and then activates defines depending on the version.
Why does fp-ide use it?
First and foremost, because this was the recommended way. But I also doubt

with gdb using a pipe.
How can it be used without GDB's internal headers?
This is our libgdb interface:
