I have used Eclipse with OcamlDE but I would like to use DDD as a
interface with GDB debugging Ocaml code. Is it even possible? If so,
can you share your experience? Thanks.

You can certainly use gdb to debug native OCaml code -- I do it
frequently. However gdb doesn't understand OCaml code, so you only
get mangled function names & assembler.
Coincidentally a few weeks ago a Red Hat-sponsored project was started
to add good C++ experience to gdb called Project Archer:

We could do with something similar for OCaml ...
