This is a port of GNU debugger (GDB) 7.4.1 to MSDOS/DJGPP.

  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.


  DJGPP specific changes.
  =======================

  - No DJGPP specific user visible changes at all.


  Please note that I have no insight in the GDB sources itself except for the
  BFD sources.  If it does not work for you, you should report it at c.o.m.d
  but I cannot garantee that I can solve the issue.
  To compile the sources you will need LFN support.  I am aware that there is
  DJGPP support included in the distribution, but I have not used those files
  and scripts to build this port so I cannot give any advice concerning its
  usefullness.
  To configure and compile the sources cd into the /djgpp directory and start
  the build.sh script.  If the script fails when configuring for djdev203 you
  should replace cat.exe with the version from djdev204.


  To compile the sources like I have done you will need the following ports:
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/zlib126b.zip>
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2tk/pdcur34a.zip>
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/gmp502b.zip>
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/mpc09b.zip>
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/mpfr301b.zip>
  or:
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/zlib126b.zip>
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/pdcur34a.zip>
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/gmp502b.zip>
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/mpc09b.zip>
    <ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2gnu/mpfr301b.zip>
  or later.
  The binary package contains both versions of the program, gdbtui.exe is the
  one with TUI support and gdb.exe is the one without TUI support.  You can the
  one you prefer and delete the other one.

  As usual, all djgpp specific files (build.sh, diffs, README files, etc.)
  are located in the /djgpp directory.  The suorces have not been configured.

  For further information about GDB please read the info docs and NEWS file.




  The port consists of the usual four packages that have been compiled
  using stock djdev203 and that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com
  and mirrors as (time stamp 2012-04-29):
