Hi I wanted to know which are the best debuggers out there for C/C++ on a Linux operating system. I have heard sth about gdb and valgrind being pretty good but I wanted to hear opinions/ comparisons on these.
Thank you

Eclipse has a good integrated debugging environment. It is a graphical wrapper over GDB – so you get the power of GDB, with an interface more like Xcode or Visual Studio.
As “GDB” is the only “real debugger” – (and thinks like “DDD” are wrappers over it) – Eclipse this is probably the debugger and IDE you’re looking for.
