Title: GDB
| Old | New | Line | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | + |  **GDB**, abbreviated for **GNU debugger** and named *gdb* as an executable file, is the standard debugger for the GNU operating system and many other platforms including Linux and Windows. In macOS 10.14 (2018) and FreeBSD 13.0 (2021), *gdb* was replaced by *[[lldb]]*, and is no longer supported. [[Lazarus]] uses GDB as the default debugger. | |
| 2 | + | ||
| 3 | + | GDB is not a part of Lazarus. Unless you are using Windows or certain versions of macOS with Xcode, you have to install it yourself before using it. Earlier versions of Xcode come with bundled GDB. After installation it will be necessary to set the path to gdb (for example */usr/bin/gdb*) in [[IDE Window: Debugger Options|Lazarus' debugger settings]]. | |
