It worked for me (Catalina). You did a brilliant job. Just curious, why use GDB instead of LLDB? I’ve been using LLDB debugger in VSCode which works really well except for displaying strings is a mess because it shows them as arrays of chars.

Anyways, it didn’t take long to crash though. :) I’m not a Lazarus user but the few times I have used it there were lots of crashes.

Application Specific Information:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSGenericException', reason: '-[NSAlert runModal] may not be invoked inside of transaction begin/commit pair, or inside of transaction commit (usually this means it was invoked inside of a view's -drawRect: method.)'
abort() called
terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException
