[Dev-C++] Newbie on gdb again

Hi all

So, no one answered my question on gdp yesterday, so this newbie has to try
by him self. Since I am somehow new to programming I really need a debugger
I am rather tired of using a lot of resources on constructing code with cout
for debugging purposes. So I went to the MIINGW homepage a found out that an
experimental version of gdp exist, downloaded it, found the file gdb.exe and
copied it into dev-cpp/bin and suddenly debugging seems to work. So fare so
good, but I am in doubt.

Is this a method that can be recommended?

The gdb tar ball contains a some more directories some of which is not in
the Dec-cpp distribution (eg. /include/readline ). Should I just copy all
file from the tarball tom my Dev-cpp distribution and thus create some new
(at least one) directories? Or is the Mingw supplied with Dev-cpp different
thus making all this dangerous to the stability of Dev-cpp?

Hope someone has an idea of what I am doing and some thought on this would
be nice, otherwise I wish everyone a pleasant weekend.
