Setting up debugging and development environment

[Miljenko Jakovljevic]

Hi,

In order to be able to run kdevelop in gdb I have added this line to the
CMakeLists.txt file in the kdevelop root directory:

set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE, "debug")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG "-ggdb")

Then I use:

cmake CMakeLists.txt
make clean (without this the build often fails with the "main not found"
message)
make -j8
gdb kdevelop (gives: no debugging symbols found)

What am I doing wrong that the debug symbols are not set?

Is there a guide about the development environment for kdevelop or
something more general?

Best regards!
Mili
