Re: [cdt-dev] Re: automatic detection of .launch files
|
I'm glad to see there's been some mutual education here, so I don't feel like a leech! The .launch files go to
<workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.debug.core/.launches/ if you specify "Save as" "Local file" on the Common tab of the Debug Configurations dialog. If you choose "Shared file" you can choose a project-relative location.
I didn't know about the launch filters.. Indeed, my launch file is shown when I turn off "Filter Deleted/Unavailable Projects". When I select it, the error msg at the top of the dialog says "[Main]: Project does not exist". This is a bit perplexing, because I have every indication that the enclosing project does in fact exist. I'll play around with the settings and see if there's something that brings it back to life.
On a related topic, when I select another debug configuration (one that I could run but not debug), the error msg at the top of the dialog says "[Main]: Program is not a recognized executable." Would I get this error if I had built the executable without debug information?

In your launch config window, there are 5 icons to
create, copy, delete, compress and filter.
Check the filter one and see if it makes your
configurations show up.
I didn't know you could create your own launches in
your project.
All my launches are stored under
<workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.debug.core/.launches/
An interesting data point is that when I open the Debug
Configurations.. dialog, the .launch is not shown in Debug Configurations...
dialog under C/C++ Application. However, if I create a new one and type in a
name identical to the basename of the existing .launch file, I get the "A
configuration with this name already exists" error. So it at least recognizes
my .launch file. Could there be some problem with the .launch file? Like I
said, I haven't manually modified it...
I can create a new Debug
Configuration with a different name and duplicate settings, and this one seems
to be recognized and work. I'd still like to figure out why this happens from
time to time, and if there's a better solution than recreating
it...
Thanks,
T

use shared .launch files and typically have many of them within a single
eclipse project, located alongside the executable they correspond to. I keep
these in an SVN repo along with the rest of the project files. The idea is
that user can just check out an SVN metaproject, build, and immediately
"Debug as..." without having to tweak anything. Most of the time, eclipse
seems to correctly detect the .launch files and populate the Debug
Configurations... dialog accordingly. Sometimes, however, it gets in a state
where it doesn't recognize a .launch file. I don't move the .launch files
around or manually edit them. Can anyone shed any light on what might cause
this behavior? Any insight on how/when Eclipse CDT detects these files would
be useful.
Thanks,
Tim
