RE: [avr-gcc-list] New User: C++ Debugging

[James Dabbs]

Thanks!  

That is what I was beginning to suspect.  HOWEVER, I have two problems in
this area.  First, Avarice crashed as soon as a typed "target cisco
localhost 4242" from GDB.  Secondly, when I tried AvrStudio4, it talked me
into upgrading the flash on the JEDEC ICE, and now Avarice won't communicate
with it at all.  Is there a compliance map of what JEDEC S/W versions are
required to work with Avarice?  ALSO, has anyone actually done end-to-end
C++ debugging with avr-gdb, avarice, and the JEDEC ICE?

Thanks!

(PS.  Why doesn't Atmel just support elf?  Avr-gdb's been out for a couple
of YEARS, and there still only looks to be patchwork integration support
from Atmel.  I know I can't be the only person having these problems.  If
someone creates an excellent, free C/C++ compiler for your product, why not
integrate it into your tools?)

Your only chance is GDB here.  The archaic COFF format used by AVR Studio
stands no chance to transport any of the C++ debugging features.
