Hi,

I am planning to extend the gdb debugger plugin, focusing more towards embedded systems. Problem is I don't know anything about the code and different files inside. How to start understanding present gdb debugger plugin code? File structure i.e; which file contains what? Their interdependency on other files?

If, there is any information that I can refer please let me know.

Note: I have already created hello world plugin on codeblocks sdk and installed successfully

Just read the code and try to understand it. There is no other documentation. Possibly use svn/git blame to see why a line of code is what it is.
(most of the time I ignore long posts)
[strangers don't send me private messages, I'll ignore them; post a topic in the forum, but first read the rules!]

No, I am not pannning any svd viewer. I have to make small changes in debug windows and add a customized 1 into it.
