emacs and idb

[geha]

Hello,
I would like to use the "User Interface Layout" provided by emacs in combination with idb. Starting the debugger like

gdb --annotate=3 a.out,

emacs splits the window into five sub-windows and I can use the debugger interactively.

However, calling idb with

idb -gdb -fullname a.out

emacs doesn't open these sub-windows. Is there any solution to this problem?

Best Regards,
Georg

Georg,

Sorry I cannot try this here (no Mac or Linux) ...

Try running the idb from the debugger

gdb -idb -fullname a.out

or something like that.

Hello Jim,
unfortunately gdb doesn't accept the option "-idb".

Btw, I'm using Linux and emacs version 22.0.50.1.
