All Debug JUnit tests running on HIPP using all of GDB >= 7.1
- Local tests all pass: https://hudson.eclipse.org/cdt/job/debug-tests-master-all-gdb-versions/
- Remote tests down to 7 failures: https://hudson.eclipse.org/cdt/job/debug-remote-tests-master-all-gdb-versions/
Older GDB support
- In some cases, probably with more recent GCCs, GDB 7.0 cannot step over printf (and maybe other issues)
- We discussed and approved only supporting GDB 7.1 and higher
- We won't remove the code supporting older GDBs but we won't work on making those work
- We will announce in N&N and make it part of the 8.6 review record
