I tried to promote gdb-dashboard a few days ago at HN but it did not fly.
gdb-dashbard is different from those reverse-engineering gdb-hacks in that, it is more for normal debugging with a better looking TUI than the default gdb tui interface.
gdb's support for python scripting made all these possible.
- mark_undoio 5y agoI like TUI but used to find it a bit flaky and inconsistent. I understand it's had a fairly recent code-level revamp. GDB has also added Python extension support for it: https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/TUI-Windows-In-Python.html https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/TUI-Window... It will be interesting to see if things like GDB Dashboard benefit from being implemented in this way in future.
