debugging does not work (don't know how to run ...)

Post by Ralf Jahns »

Hello,

I'm on Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon 64-bit, using CodeLite 8.1.0

If I do this:
Workspace->New Workspace->C++
Right Click on my newly created Workspace in Workspace View->Create New Project->Simple executable(g++)->Compiler: gcc, Debugger: GNU gdb debugger->Finish
Press F5

Result:

Debugger exited with the following error string:
"Don't know how to run. Try "help target"."

I tried "set auto-connect-native-target on" in Settings->Debugger->Startup commands but it didn't help (should be the default anyway).

Same procedure worked in older versions of CodeLite.


Best Regards
Ralf

Hello,

I usually do cross debugging with codelite and found in Menu "Settings"->"GDB Settings"->"General"->"Debugger path" the path to the ARM debugger I usually use.

But I'm absolutely sure, that
- I didn't enter it there, when I created my new workspace
- No debugger path was in "Right click the project in the workspace view"->"Settings"->"Debugger"

Regards
Ralf
