Many thanks a.d. and Adriaan for your help.

It's better, but still a problem.

I installed XCode 2.1 and transferred the CW_GDB.bin file. Now when I
debug my application actually launches. But when a breakpoint is
reached, both my app and CW 7 crash, without a crash log.

Is there anything else I need to install/update?
