 Don't know about the Objsw situation, but...

 What about my Mingw32-hosted Insight, does it work with Wiggler ?  This subject was
talked about a couple of weeks ago and I expected somebody to verify if the OCD-code
in it works or not. No feedback yet...

 What about looking at those URLs in your message, especially the 'www.objsw.com'?

 A downloadable GUI-based-GDB 4.18.1 (Insight) for powerpc-eabi target :

 Ok, I kindly ask this now... Please download also my Mingw32-hosted Insight
and tell me if the Wiggler part works in it or not... I have no Wiggler, so it just
gives a Messagebox with an error saying that the 'wigglers.dll' is missing...

 It was compiled from what was available at the moment of building. But I don't remember
any patches for the OCD or Wiggler support in later Insight sources. If Scott has some
fixes for the GDB sources, they aren't yet in the current sources. We can only hope that
he could release the fixes (of course he should be paid for his work...)  BTW, the '.1' in
the '4.18.1' means that all useful stuff from the GDB/Insight snapshots has been tried to
include into it... (Perhaps I should increase it to a larger number with every new fix)

Cheers, Kai
