gdb dysfuntional: no output in bash window, no echo
Hi, I just updated my cygwin 64 bit installation in order to resume a programming project that I left aside quite some time ago. Everything seems to work as it used to as I am able to pick up the project where I left it, I can build and run the application however gdb I/O seems broken. Here are the symptoms: After starting gdb, nothing happens apart from a process gdb.exe is started, however, no output is displayed in the bash window. This is regardless if I supply arguments to gdb or not. gdb is however alive and responsive to input commands, although nothing is echoed or output in the window. For instance, debugging a very simple program that just creates a file and writes some text on it torda@Tord-desktop ~/HelloWorld $ which gdb /usr/bin/gdb torda@Tord-desktop ~ /HelloWorld $ gdb ./helloworld.exe run quit torda@Tord-desktop ~/HelloWorld $ Hopefully this description is comprehensible, if not please let me know if anything is missing. Any idea what I should look at to troubleshoot the issue?

No terminal I have ever used other than MinTTY behaves this way with text selection, with the exception of the Windows command prompt. In fairness, it probably makes sense for it to behave in a way that is more normal for Windows users (I primarily run Linux). >> This is very annoying, because when copying text to mintty I frequently click >> and drag a small amount of text by accident. >> Is this configurable somehow? > Of course it is configurable. > mintty - Options - Selection.

Not a deal breaker as one can use "python3.x -m pylint ./file.py" but being able to run "pylint(3) ./file.py" is a nice convenience feature :) Hamish 0x87B761FE07F548D6.asc Description: application/pgp-keys signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Re: gdb not working properly in Cygwin
Hi, I encounter the same issue too. gdb starts however there is no gdb prompt, nothing is echoed and nothing is printed on the bash window except an empty blank line. From now you operate blindfolded. Debugging a simple application that prints "Hello World" on file demonstrates that gdb loads the application and is responsive to commands; "run" will run the program to its completion, and "quit" will return to the bash prompt. I tried "strace -o /tmp/gdb.strace /usr/bin/gdb --version" and indeed there are lines with 37 error messages in it. Since the trace file is large (2MB) I have extracted the lines containing the error messages and attached them to this email. I can attach the full gdb.strace if that is needed. I have no insight into what these errors are and how to remedy or workaround them, any help would be appreciated.
