When running idb 10.1.35 (intel64) with arguments '-gdb -i mi', the MI interpreter mode seems not to be correctly implemented. One cannot set a break point in a file using the full path:

(gdb)
-break-insert /full/path/main.cpp:100
~"No instructions generated for \"/full/path/main.cpp\":100\n"
^error,msg="Warning: Breakpoint not set\n"

This works fine in gdb...

We will have a look at it. What is the OS and system you are running idb?

I'm running 64-bit Ubuntu 7.10, which is probably not supported for this version of the Intel compiler. But the MI interpreter should be independent of platform, or?

You are right that theoretically the MI interpreter as such should be independent of the platform.

I did however observe that between Ubuntu 7.04 and 7.10 there have been some configuration changes that could affect some variable settings in the installation. In other words I could see this being a weird side effect of an installation problem.

Anyway - we'll investigate this further with the information you provided and do some cross checks against different debugger installation.

I'l let you know if we find a workaround. Our next major update will of course be fully validated against Ubuntu 7.10. I am sorry that it is always slightly tricky to sync the major OS version updates with our own relase schedules.

Thanks, Rob
