Thanks for your reports.

The task window is supported for Ada only.
The thread window is not implemented in 1.1.0

It has been implemented since.

I am not such what you mean by attaching to the system. If you mean doing an
"attach system" automatically, obviousely many people do not use this
mode, so this should not be done automatically, and doing it manually is
very simple. You can also put it in your .gdbinit file if this is how
you always work.

Concerning the dynamic loading, this has indeed been reported recently.
As a work around, you can always use the "Reload files" in the explorer's
contextual menu.

For the breakpoint, we have never this this behavior, so would need more
details.

GVD works fine with VxWorks, but any detailled report will help improving it.
