Eclipse CDT / GDB - open core dump?

Question

With Eclipse, you can start the process through gdb.

This gives us a pretty graphical interface that can be used to check the call stack, variable contents, etc.

Is it possible to open a core dump in Eclipse and test it via gdb?

Answer 1

After moving to the debugging perspective, select Run → Debug Configurations ... (scroll down if you don’t see it) → C / C ++ Postmortem Debugger . Then fill in the C / C ++ Application and Core file fields using the executable and coredump and click the Debug button.

Despite the fact that there is logic for organizing menus, the developers of Eclipse CDT are confident that they do not make it easy to find the most used operations.
