Is gdb support broken for Wii apps?

[DrTwox]

I had to use the debugger for the first time in a while today, but the _break() call crashes the app!

Add to template.c in the Wii examples:

Code: Select all

#include <debug.h>

int main( int argc, char **argv ) {
   DEBUG_Init(GDBSTUB_DEVICE_USB, 1);
   _break();
...
}

Compiled and linked with -ldb
I get "Exception (Floating Point) occurred!" using devkitPPC r21 and libogc 1.8.4 on Linux. Comment out the _break() call and the example app runs as expected. Am I the only one experiencing this?

Hi,

sorry, this is a bug introduced with the latest release while fixing an FP context corruption bug. I've fixed this now in SVN. So grab latest libogc from SVN, please.
