Description John Berryman

2010-09-18 12:05:09 EDT

Build Identifier: 20100617-1415

When trying to debug certain C++ projects using GDB (I don't know if I'm going through the CDT CDI GDB Adapter or the CDT Debug Services Framework GDB Adapter) the progress stops at 87% during "Launching: Configuring GDB".  If I attempt to cancel (click the little red box) from the Progress view, then the progress panel shows "Cancel Requested", but it never cancels it.  If I click the little red box in the Console view, then a window pops up that says "Error: Terminate failed".  

Unfortunately it doesn't do this for every project.  It tends to happen with larger projects though.  However, if you find a project where it happens once, it should happen every time.

Probably related to bug 223154.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a large project.
2. Click debug for that project.

Since you have a 'gdb traces' console, it means it's DSF-GDB

I use CDT 8.0.0.201109151620. Same problem except progress halts at 84%.
