Debug dialog

Use the Debug dialog to create, edit, and manage a project's launch configurations. A launch configuration defines the settings used by the Carbide debugger to launch (Run) or debug programs. A project must have at least one launch configuration in order to debug a project and can have many more. Projects that have no launch configuration invoke the New Launch Configuration Wizard when either the Run or Debug command is selected.

Select the Run > Debug Configuration... menu option to open the Debug dialog.

The tabs shown in the Debug dialog vary depending upon the type of launch configuration highlighted in the configurations list. See Launch Configuration Overview for more information on the various launch configuration types.

Click Debug to start a new debug session using the selected launch configuration.
