Is there gdb for Rust? Is it integrated into cargo?

There's a gdb plugin for Rust. It's not integrated into cargo, but it does come with the Rust release.

If you install Rust in the usual way (with rustup), then you should also get this plugin. Rust also provides a convenience wrapper, called rust-gdb, to use it.

Thanks mate.

Interesting, but what does the wrapper do as well compared to not using the wrapper and just using the plugin?

Nothing. But you have to tell gdb to use the plugin. It won't find it on its own.
