Hello, I'm John Alway. I program in C and C++, among other languages. This is my first message to the list. I've been playing around with the Wine repository for a while and have delved into some of the Bugzilla errors posted on "bugs.winehq.org." In the process of doing this, I've been using the "winedbg" executable with the "--gdb" switch set. That works fine for debugging, but lately I've been trying to employ the graphical application DDD, Data Display Debugger, with the winedbg executable. I've followed the instructions at this link: https://wiki.winehq.org/Wine_Developer%27s_Guide/Debugging_Wine#DDD
When I do winedbg comes to life, but then fails. The error reads "Err: winedbg extract_packets Dropping packets: I was too slow to respond" . I do see this error on occasion even when not using DDD, and I can still work, so I don't know if that's the reason it stops. Does anyone have any insights into using this, or is there a better way altogether? I like a visual display where I can see several elements at once. Thanks for any help! Regards,...John Alway
