My gosh, that's it! The symlink in the MacOS folder was messing up ggdb.
Also, I rebuilt everything with -gw. I changed the Project Options | Paths
| Target Filename to:
$NameOnly($(ProjFile)).app/Contents/MacOS/$NameOnly($(ProjFile))
Which evaluates to:
worker.app/Contents/MacOS/worker
I can now debug properly. I ran a few tests and for the most part
everything was clean, but a few times I got an 'oops' debugger dialog when
closing my program:
The GDB command:
"-file-exec-and-symbols "
did not return any result.
The GDB process is no longer running.
Is there a better option to get rid of the symlink other than setting the
target file name like I did? Could someone default the IDE to place the
actual exe in app bundles on the mac rather than placing a symlink there
instead?
I'm writing an exhaustive fpc+lazarus Mac setup guide and I'll be sure to
credit you guys. Thanks for the help!
When building lazarus with fink, I replace the symlink by the actual binary. I also compile with OPT='-gw -dDBG_WITH_TIMEOUT'
and also set the option GenerateDwarf for lazarus.
I will be a careful reader of your guide and incorporate your findings in building lazarus in fink.
Unfortunately, I do not have 10.9. I am happy that i could update to 10.7 lately ;-)
