how to debug a package dependent on multiple packages?

Question

The problem is how to run this complete setup in gdb as there are multiple executables involved and roslaunch do a lot of things. Parameters can be set using rosparam, but How I can run a node in some namespace in gdb ?

The part of launch file look like this:

thanks prince

Not sure about the namespace thing, but to launch a node in gdb you usually add the launch-prefix attribute to the node tag like this:

<node launch-prefix="gdb -ex run --args" .../>

Did you try that already?
