Issue using gdb #16

Closed DamSenViet closed 7 years ago

DamSenViet commented 7 years ago

When I attempted to debug a .py I got the following error message:

'gdb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

I have the full 3 package set, running it on windows.

My guess is that you do not have gdb installed.

But even if you do install it, I don't think it this package will work for you.

The dbg-gdb atom package is intended for gdb supported languages, which, unfortunately, python is not.

ProPuke commented 7 years ago

As @vanossj said - GDB is for statically compiled languages, like C or C++, not Python.

dbg-gdb also requires you to have gdb installed on your system.

Hopefully in the future we'll have a dbg-python module for python, too :D
