In an attempt to find the right way to configure new projects, I tried handbrake (handbrake.fr) with a variety of problems: - get source with svn co svn://svn.handbrake.fr/HandBrake/trunk HandBrake - start netbeans, create "project from existing source" - select custom, create project from Configure and run configure The first problem is a dialog that says: Could not successfully run the C:\applications\programming\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe compiler to configure the built-in source file parser. Please make sure C:\applications\programming\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe is in your PATH and restart the IDE. This seems a bit odd that the program knows precisely where the binary is, yet wants it in the path?? Even adding it the PATH variable and restarting the ide doesn't fix it. The complaint pops up twice every time I start the ide (and the project is open). I'm running cygwin 1.7 beta. Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200904011705) Java: 1.6.0_05; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 10.0-b19 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb) Userdir: C:\Documents and Settings\toddb\.netbeans\6.7m3
Simpler: create a new application project, and try setting a breakpoint on the first line of main. The breakpoint is never hit.
Todd, is your last comment (about breakpoint) correspond to *this* IZ?
the problem is because gcc.exe is a symbolic link
> is your last comment (about breakpoint) correspond to *this* IZ? Yes. I thought the gcc linkage problem might also be related to the gdb debug problem. Perhaps this is a different bug? And should be submitted separately. What would you prefer?
