Is there a native (not cygwin) version of DDD available for download somewhere?

DDD has not been ported to Windows AFAIK. But there ARE native gdb, which can be perfectly built using MingW32. You can also build Insight natively using Mingw32. You can also give a try to BeaverDbg

  • I have just tried beaver and it launched my process OK, but break-pointing caused it to crash which left me reaching for the add/remove programs option pretty fast. – ScrollerBlaster Jan 21 '12 at 18:57

There is also a GDB front-end for MS Visual Studio, called WinGDB. It supports both Cygwin and MinGW. You use it just like built-in debugger in VS. It's also possible to debug remotely on Linux via SSH.

    Just curios as to why this was accepted as the answer? It does not explain how to run DDD under Windows (GDB != DDD). I am still looking for any other Windows debugger that san chow me something like this http://www.gnu.org/software/ddd/all.png – Mawg says reinstate Monica Nov 10 '13 at 07:30

    For anyone randomly stumbling across this after all these years. Microsoft now actually has its own GDB bridge for Visual Studio 2015. You can get it here: https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/35dbae07-8c1a-4f9d-94b7-bac16cad9c01 . It's based around this Open-Source project: https://github.com/Microsoft/MIEngine . It worked for a MSYS2 based makefile project for me. – PeterT Mar 06 '16 at 14:21

Try the Affinic Debugger GUI. It is a native Windows application and is similar to DDD. It uses GDB as the backend.

For a cross-platform gdb frontend, Qt Creator comes to mind. It also does "native" cdb on Windows, but I am not sure that's what you are looking for.

Since there is no native windows (not cygwin) gdb, there can't be a native windows (not cygwin) ddd.
