I am using CodeBlocks 17.12 bundled with MingGW: GDB 7.11.1, mingw32-gcc 5.1.0, and mingw32-g++ 5.1.0.

When setting a breakpoint while the program is running I get a SIGTRAP signal. I am able to continue past the breakpoint and hit it multiple times. When I remove the breakpoint, the program still stops on the same line with a SIGTRAP. On the next continue it stops with a SIGILL and I am no longer able to continue.

Breakpoint is set on line 9, the cout line:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    for(int i = 0; i < 65000; i++)
    {
        cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
    }
    return 0;
}

Debugger Output in CodeBlocks:

Trying to interrupt process with pid: 19600; child pid: 19600 gdb pid: 20264

EDIT Removed bundled because I was using a custom MinGW install, not the bundled install.

I got past this issue by pointing CodeBlocks to use the MinGW install it was bundled with at

C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW 

instead of my install at

C:\MinGW
