 Hi,

 gdb 7 seems to worl better with eclipse cdt, so I got it. Unfortunately,
 it seems to not load my symbol file (mach-o-le). gdb apple can.

 {{{
 (gdb) file myfile
 Reading symbols from /Volumes/JiefHD/Users/jief_ml/AHome/Devel/Chameleon
 /Chameleon-Jief/sym/i386/myfile...(no debugging symbols found)...done.
 (gdb)
 }}}

 command : "file myfile" give the result : "myfile: Mach-O preload
 executable i386"

 gdb apple 6.3.50 says it's "file type mach-o-le".

 Thanks.
