I've been trying to debug a program of mine in CLion and couldn't figure out why none of the breakpoints that I set were hit. I was using MinGW as a toolchain. After I switched to the Visual Studio toolchain, the debugger mysteriously worked. Why is this and how can I fix this issue? I need the debugger to work with MinGW. Here are some more details of my set toolchains: I wrote this small program:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int a = 10;
a += 1;
printf("Hello, %d!\n", a);
return 0;
}
And I set a breakpoint at every line after the main() declaration. Here is the default CMake file that was generated:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.17)
project(practice_1 C)
set(CMAKE_C_STANDARD 99)
add_executable(practice_1 main.c)
And here is the MinGW toolchain set:
When I run this in CLion in debug mode the debugger doesn't work. It just goes straight to the end, printing that message in the console.
If I set the toolchain with the Visual Studio setting it all works. So I do this:
And now I can use the Visual Studio debugger. It hits the breakpoints and I can debug my program. But I need to use the other setting. How can I solve this issue and use the GDB debugger? I tried adding this in the CMake file but it didn't work.
This is the build text I get in the console after rebuilding all:
