Re: No source file named xxxx

Does gdb find symbols in Test.cpp? If you set a break on a symbol and it has 
line info then you should see that displayed. eg.

(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x8048385: file xx.c, line 3.

The default -g level is 2, I wonder whether -g3 is causing some confusion. Try 
just -g
