eclipse CDT gdb create a certificate

Keep using gdb (not gdb-apple) and just do the following steps:

1- Create a certificate:

• Start Keychain Access application (/Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access.app)
• Open menu /Keychain Access/Certificate Assistant/Create a Certificate...
• Choose a name (gdb-cert in the example), set Identity Type to "Self Signed Root", set Certificate Type to "Code Signing" and select the "Let me override defaults".
• Click several times on Continue until you get to the Specify a Location For The Certificate screen, then set Keychain to System.
• Using the contextual menu for the certificate, select "Get Info", open the Trust item, and set Code Signing to "Always Trust".

2- You must quit Keychain Access application (named "taskgated",from activity monitor) and open it again in order to use the certificate.

3- Assign the certificate to gdb:

• using the following command: $ codesign -s gdb-cert gdb
