Iā€™m still really grateful this support of debugging of Haiku and applications (all programs, for old dudes who would rather use this phrase :wink: ) on it ā€“ however Iā€™m just a lucky Haiku user only.

Have luck to complete it successfully - either way !

Thank you for all your hard work!

Now I can use your latest GCC port to debug firefox. Currently Qt Creator is the best graphical GUI frontend which works for me as far as I tested.

GCC consumes 2GB+ RAM to debug firefox, but it is greatly improved from the native Debugger days.

It works for step-execution on C++/Rust mixed project, too.
