[pyclewn] Newbie - How to use pyclewn for debugging from vim - Debugging in VIM

[Rajesh Khan]

I have been working on linux for a couple of days. I am using gvim for
development. Now I need a debugger and I found out online that pyclewn
<http://pyclewn.sourceforge.net/install.html> is highly recommneded (since
it resembles Visual Studio in windows). I downloaded it and installed it.
Now my question is how do I use it ? I currently run a make file to
generate my executable. How do I integrate pyclewn with that executable ?

Here is what I have done so far in the following order

1 - :Pyclewn //Starts the program2 - :Cfile myfile . //myfile
was the output of makefile its the executable3 - :Cmapkeys
//Shows the mapping of the keys4 - :S-R //Run the program

This is what I get

Pyclewn version 1.11.py2 starting a new instance of gdb.

I do not get an output or am not sure what to do next ? Any suggestions ?

pyclewn is a vim front-end to gdb, so you need to understand how to use gdb.
There are many gdb tutorials on the net.
