How do you specify a debugger program in Code::Blocks 12.11?

  • In the Code::Blocks IDE, navigate Settings -> Debugger

  • In the tree control at the right, select Common -> GDB/CDB debugger -> Common.

  • Then in the dialog at the left you can enter Executable path and choose Debugger type = GDB or CDB, as well as configuring various other options.


  1. Go to Settings -> Debugger -> Common -> GDB/CDB Debugger -> Default
  2. Click on executable path to find the address to gdb32.exe
  3. Locate where your codeblock is installed
  4. Follow the given path:

CodeBlock -> MinGW -> bin -> gdb32.exe (locate it and double click on it)

  1. Press OK

For Code::Blocks 17.12.

  1. Visit http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=MinGW_installation#TDM-GCC

  2. Follow installation's instructions.

  3. Alternatively I suggest this post.

Regards.
