When I try to debug a simple program with gdb on cygwin, I get the following:
C:\Users\Benoit St-Pierre\workspace_cpp\cs454>gdb a.exe
GNU gdb 6.8.0.20080328-cvs (cygwin-special)

This GDB was configured as "i686-pc-cygwin"...
(gdb) start
Breakpoint 1 at 0x401a51: file server.cc, line 207.
Starting program: /cygdrive/c/Users/Benoit St-Pierre/workspace_cpp/cs454/a.exe
Error creating process /cygdrive/c/Users/Benoit St-Pierre/workspace_cpp/cs454/a.exe, (error 193).
If error 193 is equal ERROR_BAD_EXE_FORMAT.
The compiled application itself works fine, and clients connect and interact with the application. I am using cygwin 1.7 since I am using new methods getaddrinfoto configure sockets. The application was compiled using gcc 3.4.4 with the following command:
g++ -g3 server.cc
Does anyone know what I can do wrong?
