These 3 settings are in Project options -> Linking page:
Generate Debugging Info For GDB (Slows Compiling) (-g)
[X] Display Line Numbers in Run-time Error Backtraces (-gl)
Generate dwarf debug information (-gw)
For a new project only -gl is selected by default. However, I am still able to
debug the application. How is it possible?
I have learned that -gl is not for debug info but line number info as the
label says.
-g and -gw are kind of alternatives, they never need to be selected at the
same time. Is this correct?
I suggest that the GUI is clarified. -g and -gw should be placed next to each
other if they are alternatives, or radiobuttons could be used for them.
Debugging without debug info should not be possible. I guess there is a hack
somewhere that allows it.
