My problem: I have programmed some mathematical functions with DJGPP (GNU C++), the used editor was rhide. The calculations and the output to files are under default conditions (DOS). After then a graphical output is carried out on the screen, based on allegro. When I start the debugger gdb with "gdb program_name" and "running", it works well, the calculation and the writing to files. But after switching to the graphic-mode (autodetect, 800 x 600 Pixels) the screen shows the graphical surface, but the program stops, nothing is working anymore. So I have to quit the program with 'ctrl+alt+del'. I have no ideas, what happened. Who can give me an answer? Which debugger can I use for debugging allegro programs or working in one-step-mode? And how do I have to apply them? Where can I find some manuals or documentations of the debuggers or generally of debugging C++-code?
