GDB is okay once you get the hang of it, but it's seriously less productive than with proper IDE integration.
How do you make a breakpoint? 'break Filename.cpp:1234' or 'break FullClassName::FullFunctionName'. I have to go to my editor, lookup the file and line number, go to gdb and enter a command. Remove a breakpoint? I always forget how to do that so I need to lookup the manual every time. Urgh. I just want to be able to click on a button next to the line to insert or remove a breakpoint.
The command line interface has its uses, but there should also be excellent editor integration. I don't care about IDEs; integration with Sublime Text is fine. Unfortunately every project that I've come across that tries to implement that is half-baked.
