If you want to use the GNU Debugger on Windows, say for Code::Blocks or Eclipse CDT, you have two options: Cygwin and MinGW. Cygwin is pretty easy to install, but uses Unix paths internally. This makes it a pain to set up. MinGW uses Windows paths, but there is no fancy setup.exe. Okay, there is an installer, but I did not find a way to install gdb. You can install MinGW components package by package, but I ended up with gdb crashing due to “Missing libexpat-1.dll”.
Fortunately, there is another installer for MinGW, and this one brings everything you need, even gdb: TDM’s GCC/MinGW32 Builds. And this one is working fine for me.
