GDB version settings for emacs

I am using emacs version 23.1 to debug C / C ++. GDB version, this version of emacs chooses by default: 5.2.1. I would like to use GDB version 7.0.

I tried the following options: -

  • Make an alias (in ~ / .alias) for gdb to the desired gdb location (i.e. the location of gdb version 7.0.)

  • Add the line (setq gdb-command-name "/ grid / common / bin / gdb") to the ~ / .emacs file.

Both of these options do not work. Can anybody help?

Have you tried setting your PATH so that the desired gdb is first found (before emacs started, of course)? (by the way, I don’t even see the variable "gdb-command-name").
