Is there any enhanced gdb console for Eclipse?

Currently the gdb console of Eclipse just connects the stdin/stdout between the java gui and the underlying gdb process, hence many gdb shell features are missing, e.g. tab-autocomplete, command history etc.

I want to know if there is an enhanced console for fast gdb interacting. I really like the frequently used gdb commands like "print" and "call" etc. IMHO, "print" command is superiors sometimes than Eclipse "Expression watcher" because it only execute once and the later will be evaluated any time and be crash-prone.

If you think there is 开发者_如何转开发no need to use gdb console, then what's you best-practise in terms of gdb UI to eclipse UI transfer.

There doesn't seem to be any gdb-specific plugin, beside the initial gdb integration initiated with Eclipse3.4.

And the current list of gdb bugs doesn't include your missing features.

If you're writing c/++, why not just find the eclipse-generated elf and use gdb via the shell?
