Subject: Non-stop mode for Windows (mingw)
Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2016 06:25:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45100db8-5b69-6a7a-e6cc-bad09e686f46@indel.ch> (raw)
According to empirical tests and by looking at the GDB sources,
'windows-nat.c' and, therefore, GDB running on Windows (mingw) does not
support non-stop debugging.
- What's the technical reason behind this? Was it just not ported to
that platform so far? Wasn't it done because it's tricky?
- What would be needed to support it? (Is the main required thing that
'displaced single stepping' is required for non-stop mode?)
Thanks!
Raphael
