I'm using eclipse cdt mingw 7.3.0 windows 10 for debugging the dynamically loaded dll.
Problem is that program loads a lot of dlls and it takes minutes till gdb is connected to all of them, but I need only one.
Is there a possibility to specify in debug configuration the library that I want to debug and load only this one in gdb?
Thanks in advance.

There is a CDT Qt plugin that hangs everything on startup if a C++ file is open.
How to make Eclipse start with all files closed?

Maybe this answer helps you. It shows where the workbench settings are located.
I'm using Eclipse CDT on Windows 7, with MinGW as my toolchain and GDB as my debugger. For the most part I have been able to get everything working normally, including the development of Java, C/C++, and JNI applications.
However, I am unable to debug the native side of those JNI applications. The Java debugger works fine for Java code and GDB works fine for purely native code, but I cannot seem to get GDB to operate properly on code within a JNI .DLL.
I have searched the web for quite a while regarding this, and it sounds like the success people have had is by attaching to the running Java process after launching it from Eclipse. Then, setting a breakpoint and letting GDB hit it. Unfortunately, this does NOT seem to work for Windows users.
The only advice that seems to work ( which I can confirm ) is to launch the Java application in Eclipse, then attach to the process from Visual Studio. From there you can set breakpoints in the native code, and they will be hit. This approach is a pain in itself, but what really makes it awful is that you need to have compiled the .DLL from Visual Studio in order to generate the .PDB file for debugging symbols. Making the whole CDT somewhat extraneous at that point.
I'd much prefer to stay within Eclipse, but only if I can actually debug with it. Can anybody out there confirm if it's possible to debug JNI code with Eclipse CDT from Windows?
After a bunch more digging, I have confirmed this is definitely possible with the current ( Kepler ) build of Eclipse and MinGW.
That seemed to be my problem actually; the version of GDB I had wasn't able to attach to any process at all ( which I verified from the command line ). After updating to the current version of MinGW with a new gdb.exe, I could attach properly and view all the threads. Getting breakpoints to hit took a bit more work ( I was missing -g from the gcc compile ), but after that all seems fine.
I've been trying for a few hours now to make eclipse, mingw and Qt work, and I can't manage to.
No matter what I try, when I try to run the qt application (using Run or Debug, same thing), no window appears, and after a few seconds, Eclipse says 'program terminated'. Another time I tried (using some different configurations), windows would give that "Program has stopped" error.
If I try to launch the application from outside eclipse, I get a missing .dll error.
I have Qt 4.8.1 installed, latest version of eclipse, and I just installed the latest version of MinGW. I am also using the Qt plugin for Eclipse. I'm running Windows 7.
There are also some other minor problems:
For some reason I have to rebuild the index after opening/creating a project, or I'll get 'undefined include' errors.
The build (hammer) icon in the toolbar is grayed/disabled, why could that be?
For every new project, I need to change the make application to mingw32-make, is it possible to make the toolchain use this make executable or something?
I can't understand why Microsoft Visual Studio just works, I didn't have to set up anything other than install the Qt add-in, and Eclipse is so hard to configure...
My goal is to debug Haxe application in Eclipse (publishing SWF) on Linux. I have manually installed Eclipse Helios, Flash debugger version and Haxe. I have installed Eclihx. Problem is that I'm getting message from Eclipse:
Flash debug runner. This feature isn't ready!
Note: I can run program, so Haxe compiling works. I have also tried adding -D and -debug to hxml. I've been Googling out there, but no success.
And also, I don't know how to setup Eclipse so when I do run that automatically browser pops up with html.
From what I know, it's not currently possible to debug Haxe from Eclipse. However, you could compile a debug Haxe build and and use Adobe's fdb.exe, which is the command line debugger for Flash. With it, you should be able to set breakpoints and do some run-time state inspection. Hope this helps!
I installed eclipse Helios a week ago. First I installed it without the CDT.
Today I installed the CDT along with the autotool (this it what can be seen in the list of possible updates). Afterwards, I installed also the minGW (Wascana) as written in the manual of CDT.
but after I create an Hello World project in eclipse I get this error (blinking non stopable) in the console tab:
Invoking autoreconf in build directory: D:/eclipse/proj/workspace/testcpp
Configuration failed with error
(Cannot run program "autoreconf": Launching failed)
Can anyone help me with this? What else do I need to install or config so my CDT will work?
thanks,
Eli
The autotools plug-in doesn't work on Windows yet. There is a fix in place for the upcoming Indigo Eclipse release.
The main problem is that Windows doesn't know how to run shell scripts (which is what autoreconf is). You have to launch the shell manually and ask it to run it. And that's what the fix is.
