If I understand your post, you are not using gdb correctly.
With no robot, compile your code.
cd to that directory, where your code and source currently are.
Code:
gdb mycode
gdb> br main           <- start debugging at the first line in main
gdb> r  [any arguments to the code go here just like you would type them on the command line]

At this point you are in the code. Use the step, list, print to move thru the code, print a variable, show the surrounding lines of code.

IF you have a problem line
Code:
br [problem line num]

. If you have a problem function br
Code:
[function name]

Any time you want to quit: type q and answer y, for help: type help.

NAME
nana - generates debugger commands from C and C++ source code SYNOPSIS
nana [cpp-flags] files... DESCRIPTION
Generates gdb(1) commands from the arguments which implement the assertion and logging operations specified by macros such as DI(3) and DL(3). The output of nana(1) can then be sourced into gdb(1) to perform these operations. Note that you must provide any C preprocessor flags you are using to nana since these can change the code that is generated by the com- piler. SEE ALSO
nana-clg(1), nana(3), I(3), DI(3), L(3), DL(3), Q(3) and nana.info. The nana.info file is the primary documentation. AUTHOR
