Anybody there succeeded debugging C++ in Eclipse?

I wanted to shift from Visual Studio 2008 to Eclipse Helios for C++ dev. I tried in mac and found a lot of unstabilities while开发者_C百科 debugging. Then I tried on Linux and similar. This is the last problem I found:

At the moment I am going to give up eclipse. I would just like to know how many of you succeeded using Eclipse Helios CDT for debugging C++ programs or if I am just a dammned, isolated case, before I give up or continue trying to go forward.

I use Eclipse Helios as my C++ IDE. Os is Ubuntu 10.04. I use it regularly for debugging and can't remember to have ever had any serious problems. I had never problems with "unstabilities" while working with projects of significant size including Qt applications.

I would suspect you are an isolated case. If you are more specific, we might be able to help. If you want to abandon Eclipse though, I have heard good things about Qt Creator but still consider Eclipse superior.

The only thing that bugs me while debugging is that the debugger doesn't respect breakpoints inside of template functions and source code is not shown for template functions. If I recall correctly, this is different for Qt Creator but am not sure right now.

I use Helios as well on Ubuntu 10.04, and Windows XP to debug my Qt projects built with mingw.

I've never had a problem.

I've never tried on a Mac though.
