Debugging with GDB 8 on Windows

[Siemargl]

As i have read, as of LDC 1.23, dwarf debug info supported.

I try to use gdb, but not successfully - breakpoints cannot be 
set on function name, and not working completely.

I tested gdb 8.2 and 8.3 x64 (and lldb - mention in him topic).

I test gdb with FPC3.2 x64 example and it works fine, so its not 
a my machine or gdb problem.
