Hi. I'm doing a program that needs super user rights to work. So I need to build it and then execute it as sudo user.

How could I execute a debugger within code::blocks with super user rights? Could this be done without execute code::blocks as super user?

Thank you.

Alternatively you can setup a script for gdb that actually calls sudo and queries for a PW in an intelligent way (not stopping C::B from work).

A script probably won't work, because C::B needs the PID of GDB.

Well, I already know that solution, that is why I asked a way to do it without sudo privileges. I don't like my source code or my the compiled objects to be owned by root user.

Install windows then. There is no such restriction  :lol:

There is something similar, as we often see, if users try to create exe's below win7's program-folder.

No restriction for reading memory with ReadProcessMemory and WriteProcessMemory? It sounds security hazard.
