Kdevelop debug-menu problem

[sandro54]

Hi guys,
I tried to use Kdevelop to build GTK-script but I have a problem about the debugging function . From the menu-bar the debug-menu (and script-menu) are empty, i.e. they I don't have the functions to do debugging .
Please do you have any idea to help me ??

Thanks in advance
Sandro

Re: Kdevelop debug-menu problem

First check you have the debugger (gdb) installed, it should be there, always worth checking.
Next check that the project has been built with debug support turned on (Compiler options dialogue), you *might* have to do a clean and rebuild after turning debug compiler option on.

If that doesn't work, let me know...

Re: Kdevelop debug-menu problem

gdb is installed .
I choose Kdevelop->Multilanguage IDE and I create a new project (project->new project->python->simple python/tkinter script).
Now under Project->Project options I don't see a choose about "Compiler options dialog" or something else to activate the debug .

The debug menu is always empty.

My interest is using Kdevelop for Python language plus Tkinter or GTK .

can you help me ? thanks a lot

I think you'll be out of luck with Python; to the best of my knowledge there isn't yet a KDevelop plug-in for the Python debugger (pdb).

Re: Kdevelop debug-menu problem

I think you are right , it is very strange that Kdevelop doesn't have yet the python plug-in .

do you have any suggestion about a free good IDE for pyhton ??

thanks a lot anyway.

Have you tried Eric?
http://eric-ide.python-projects.org/

I've never used it... So I can only go by the web site (looks good ), It's also available in the Kubuntu repositories.
