I am trying to install insight debugger on my windows 7 machine but without any success.

I installed cygwin full package and I downloaded the source of insight. I am following the steps in this tutorial without any success, I already spent 2 hours trying compiling, but nothing. It always gives me the same error.

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/4.5.3/../../../../include/w32api/winsock2.h:632:32:  
error: conflicting types for 'select'  
/usr/include/sys/select.h:31:5: note: previous declaration of 'select' was here  
make[2]: `***` [tclAlloc.o] Error 1  
make[2]: Leaving directory '/cygdrive/c/insight-6.1/tcl/win'  
make[1]: `***` [all] Error 2  
make[1]: Leaving directory '/cygdrive/c/insight-6.1/tcl'  
make: `***` [all-tcl] Error 2

I want one debugger like insight to debug my C code linked with my developed assembly to IA-32

    the gdb-6.8-2 cygwin binary package ships with insight; the newer version gdb-7.3.50-3 only includes the text-mode ui (command `gdbtui` or `gdb -tui`) – Christoph Nov 20 '11 at 14:29
  • I did that and i just start receiving another error :| "damm" Tcl_Init failed: Can't find a usable init.tcl ..... – gds03 Nov 20 '11 at 15:24
  • @Christoph i am missing something? – gds03 Nov 20 '11 at 15:53
  • I think it "just worked" for me; I no longer have cygwin installed here (switched to MSYS some time ago), so I can't easily check what might be wrong... – Christoph Nov 20 '11 at 18:37
  • @Christoph, how did you get insight to compile in Msys, I am getting errors while compiling. It will be very helpful if you can give me some description. – xkrz Jan 30 '12 at 15:57

OK, so, after very hours spent I think the best I can give is to show you how, I resolved the problem and I posted on my github page.

Hope this helps.

  • I am trying your instruction at github. It does not seem to tell me where to actually do the compilation. I see archives of already built insight,gdb, and tcl. Should I be compiling or just use the *.exe? – xkrz Jan 27 '12 at 18:27
