Hello
with the eclipse IDE I get this message while debugging:

No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.

What shall I do? ( in the eclipse.org forum I get no answer ) I found
online some people with the same problem but no solution to that.
Many thanks
Michael

Here certainly isn't the place to ask.

Try a gnu forum (assuming you are using gcc/gdb).

I wanted to buy some fish, but the fishmonger's was closed, so I asked
my mechanic instead.

Above the error msgs. Looks like broken path? But how/where to fix
this in eclipse? Can't find that.
Thanks Michael

Again, the Eclipse environment is completely off topic here. Please
ask in an Eclipse forum.

Or did you have a question about the C++ language, as defined by
ISO/IEC 14882:2003?

Tip: To bounce a post, don't rely on a sign saying "no skateboarding city
council ordinance 9048 etc." It tends to attract skateboarders.

Advocate that using an Eclipse forum, such as
news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.ide.eclipse.cdt.devel , is in the poster's
best interests. They will get the most accurate answer there, from a
critical mass of regulars able to review each others' posts, and with less
flak.

Appeal to Authority only weakens your position!

Except this guy was already told once (by Ian Collins) that he was OT
here.

I did tell him to post as on an Eclipse forum.

So asking how his question applies to the language as defined by the
Standard weakens my position? In case you didn't know, ISO/IEC
14882:2003 is the current Standard for C++. The charter of this
group is to discuss the language defined therein.

"In case you didn't know," you won't find a "charter" for this newsgroup if
you google.

Oh dang, this group has no charter. :-)

He he.

The moderated group, on the other hand, does have a charter. The reason that
[comp.lang.c++] does not is that it's one of the earliest groups. That does of
course not mean that off-topic articles are acceptable, or that the article
under discussion here was not clearly off-topic; it only means that there can be
some disagreement among the denizens of the group about what is off-topic.


Cheers & hth.,

No ads, and there is some C++ stuff! :-) Just going there is good. Linking
to it is even better! Thanks in advance!

I better not catch either one of you discussing Design Patterns, or
methodologies, or platform comparisons, or the symptoms of undefined
behavior, or the width of 'int' here!

Oops... mixed up the two groups.

Any of those may be valid in the context of discussion of the language.

How to use a particular debugger or a particular IDE is not.

I frequently receive thanks for my bounce posts. Learning to bounce
correctly is part of the job here.

No. There's certainly nothing in the rules of the group which
refers to ISO/IEC 14882:2003. There is a rule that the question
should concern C++, but C++ is generally understood to be more
than just the standard. (The standard, for example, explicitly
doesn't address issues of performance, but no one shouts "off
topic" is someone asks a question about performance.)

Yeah, but you might eventually get help there. You're unlikely to find
it here.

Eclipse itself is alive and kicking (right?), so its newbs and lifers must
be mixing it up somewhere...

Fish around for their real form. Maybe it's on Twitter now - go figure...

Yeah, here you'll only find emacs/vi hackers or people interested in the
theoretical aspects of the language.

Actually, I use eclipse at home and we tried to make the switch to
eclipse at work. Unfortunately it just plain didn't work well enough to
kill Visual Studio and support was only good for certain few modules,
not including the CDT itself.
