debug c with eclipse and get error - c

I'm using Eclipse for C programming as I've installed the C/C++ plug-ins from the 'Help' menu but when I go to debug I get the error below. I've downloaded and installed GDB for mac and if I type 'gdb' in bash I go into the app. How do I get eclipse to recognise gdb?
"Error while launching command: gdb --version"
EDIT: I just need to know where the location of the gdb files are on the mac.

C - Not able to run a C program in any IDE (Tried with Netbeans and VSCode)

I installed MinGW compiler to run a C/C++ program. When I check the compiler version it shows this:
This is my MinGW directory:
This is my PATH setting:
I have set my PATH environment variable as follows:
%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\MinGW\bin;C:\MinGW\MSYS\1.0\bin;
Whenever I run my C/C++ project in Netbeans, it's giving me below error even though my program build is getting successful:
Please help me to fix this issue.

Debugging ncurses application in Eclipse IDE (Linux)

I'm creating an ncurses application in the Eclipse IDE (for C/C++ developers), running on Linux Mint. I'm able to successfully launch the application in the gnome terminal from Eclipse, via an external tool configuration, as per the following post:
http://damienlearnsperl.blogspot.com/2015/03/experimenting-with-ncurses-on-linux-in.html
However, so far I've been unable to run the Eclipse debugger alongside the gnome terminal. Running the debugger within Eclipse doesn't work either, since I only see the "Error opening terminal: unknown." message, after which the application is terminated.
I've tried several suggestions found on google, but none of them seem to work, or they're related to outdated/other versions of Eclipse:
Debugging ncurses with Eclipse CDT
https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ#HOWTO_debug_applications_which_require_a_real_terminal
https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/44886/
The "Attach to Application" option doesn't seem to work either, I'm only seeing "failure to attach to process" errors when trying to attach the debugger to a running gnome terminal.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
Ksawery

GDB stuck at “Configuring GDB Aborting configuring GDB”

I've installed (OSX Mojave 10.14.6.) Eclipse CDT and GNU MCU Eclipse plugin and finaly GNU Tools for ARM. My goal is to build and debug ARM code using GDB (arm-none-eabi-gdb).
I've created a Hello World project for Arm, which builds ok - but, debugging seems not to work with GDB (that comes with the Arm package). GDB gets stuck:
I have set the proper paths in Eclipse to arm-none-eabi-gdb.
I have signed the arm-none-eabi-gdb (with the same certificate that I used to sign GDB installed via brew into /usr/local/bin/gdb the day before - and it worked!).
I have also tried running Eclipse as root from command line.
Nothing helps.
The message is "Configuring GDB Aborting configuring GDB".
What to do?
Probably what is going on here is that you built to a given target (ARM based) and you're trying to run it (with gdb) on your mac (x86).
You'll need an emulator or QEMU to properly run on your mac or maybe a real board.

Eclipse on Ubuntu 17.04, can't run c code after building it: Launch failed. Binary not found

I am new to eclipse CDT on Ubuntu and I can not run my program successfully. I am able to build my code and binaries then occur on the left navigator. However, when I try to run my program, there is an error saying "Launch failed. Binary not found". I was just running the sample Hello-world program.
My OS is Ubuntu 17.04.

gdb package not appearing in Cygwin setup

I need to write some programs in C, so I've downloaded and installed cygwin and Eclipse Neon cpp.
I've installed the required Cygwin packages and my C programs are compiling and running but I can't debug them because GDB isn't installed.
I get "Error with command: gdb --version" when I try to debug in Eclipse.
I've opened the Cygwin setup again, searched but there's no GDB in the packages (Picture of the installation) list. How can I add the GDB package to the Cygwin setup and install it so that Eclipse can use it?
The difference between my question and the one that is suggested is that I entered the setup but can't find the package.
I'm running Windows 10, Eclipse Neon.1a Release 4.6.1 and Cygwin 2.6.0
Thanks
