Subject:	ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of GDB-6.1.1

This is an announcement of DJGPP port of GNU Debugger GDB-6.1.1.

GDB is a source-level debugger for C, C++, Pascal, Objective-C
and many other languages.  GDB can target (i.e., debug programs
running on) more than a dozen different processor architectures, and
GDB itself can run on most popular GNU/Linux, Unix and Microsoft
Windows variants.


It is available from DJGPP distribution:

Binary archive (most users need only this file, includes gdb.exe, bfdsymify.exe, etc):
	ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gdb611b.zip

Source archive:
	ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gdb611s.zip

Some libraries used by gdb (BFD, readline, etc). User don't usually need them
unless he/she wants to develop own programs which uses these libraries:
	ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gdb611a.zip
	
GDB documentation in Postscript, DVI, PDF and HTML formats (also 
documentation of libraries included in gdb611a.zip):
	ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gdb611d.zip


New features that are noteworthy for DJGPP users:

- Better support for newer GCC versions
- Similary as in earlier versions bfdsymify.exe is included. One should use
  bfdsymify instead of symify with stabs and DWARF2 debugging info.
  
You can find additional information:
    
- In files included in directory gnu/gdb-6.11 in archive gdb611b.zip
- GDB home page  http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/


Please direct any further discussions about this port to 
comp.os.msdos.djgpp news group (or write to its e-mail gateway 
djgpp AT delorie DOT com)

I really only built DJGPP packages (only one small source change against 
original gdb-6.1.1 sources).
