Any recommendation? debug tools and IDE on cygwin

guys, I just got GR installed on cygwin. It runs. But
don’t know what debugging tools and IDE that I can use
to play with it. Eclipse for windows seems not support
cygwin. I couldn’t run debugging or any other code
navigation function.

do you have any suggestions and recommendations on
cygwin debugging tools and IDE? really appreciate it!!

Bob

I’m a big fan of the universal IDE, emacs.

From some sessions I attended at Eclipecon, it seems that cygwin
support for Eclipse CDT is indeed limited, and that isn’t likely to
change. I did some JNI work with it and it mostly worked for me, but the
indexer seems to have a hard time with the cygdrive paths. Writing your
own Makefiles definitely helps. If you are considering Eclipse, you do
want to build with mingw instead. I haven’t tried this with gnuradio, so
I don’t know what is involved, but I seem to recall reading that it is
possible.

This idea definitely has potential as Eclipse has pretty reasonable
Python support, too. It may be easier to start playing with this on
Linux though, to avoid having to solve too many problems at once.

Just my -17dB$,
