I'm taking it for a spin and sharing my notes as I go:
* UI has pleasant colors, I could get used to comfort of having all relevant info in side panes
* The gdb starts in /opt/gdbfrontend directory, would be nice if it changed to dir you executed gdbfrontent in
* I wish I could collapse Disassembly list - I don't want to see it ever
* Icons don't have tooltips and some are not so clear
* "Sources" pane doesn't actually have all the sources, some appear only after I set breakpoint in previously missing file
* Breakpoints set manually through GDB console don't show up in UI breakpoint list
* Usual shortcuts F10, F11... for stepping over and into don't work, while gdb commands n and s work only if lower pane has focus, so interface requires more mouse clicking
* In my specific case it doesn't detect local variables or respond to added watches (fields to right stay blank)
This is where I stopped using it, don't have time to debug the debugger. I appreciate the effort and it looks like it might be extremely handy tool in future.

- rohanrhu 7y agoThank you for your feedback. You can look this: https://github.com/rohanrhu/gdb-frontend#gdb-related-issues-and-tips https://github.com/rohanrhu/gdb-frontend#gdb-related-issues-... I will implement adding additional folders to sources. You can check this demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LNR8u19x6Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LNR8u19x6Y If something is wrong for you, you can create an issue on Github. You can set breakpoints via clicking line numbers. I did not implemented shortcuts yet. :)
