Hi,

I was testing the new connector to MSSQL when I found a problem.
If I compile and run in console, I have no memleak. Good. But if I put
a breakpoint in AConnection.Free; and press F8, I got this:

ERROR
,msg="Warning:\nCannot insert breakpoint -237.\nError accessing memory
address 0x7816cd30: Input/output error.\n"


A negative breakpoint means internal to gdb (like a breakpoint gdb sets for
stepping). So when you press F8 gdb apparently can't get the correct
location where the step should end.

Are you sure your app (and package that has debug info) are compiled:
- with either -O0 or -O1 (no other optimization enabled)
- your app is NOT smartlinked

Martin,
I recompiled FPC and Lazarus using -gl -gw2 -godwarfsets options, but
the problem continues.

I don't know where/why it upsets gdb.

The above will allow you to step into RTL/packages.

It certainly is no error in the app, but a problem in the debug info (or what gdb makes of it).

There are 3 possibilities:
1) FPC writes bad debug info. You can try -gs versus -gw (stabs/dwarf).
2) The linker gets it wrong. Try -Xe
3) gdb is buggy. Which version are you on?

Do all lines get a blue dot? (except maybe "else" and empty lines)

Where to get mssqlcon ?

As workarounds:
1) Try setting a breakpoint on next command and use F9
2) Single step in assembler window (single step asm instructions)

Did you try to continue, after the error (if you are lucky, it might be possible)?

--------
For 64 bit, latest gdb (I have not tested it yet)
