gdb: No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.

Sorry, only worked on this again now. The solution is to use the -g option to include debug symbols when compiling. When using pure-gcc add it to either the project makefile (ex. CFLAGS = -Os -g) or to the template. You don't need to use the file command as Håkan proposed, eclipse does that for you if you have set it up according to nAN-29 (load symbols check box in the startup tab of the debug settings).

You'll have to load the .out (or .elf) file using the file command in gdb:

file <myfile.out>
