Description chakie 2016-03-21 13:39:07 UTC

I wanted to debug my project. Clicked on "Debug Project". The debugger does not launch, but exits with error code 0. Perhaps it requires some extra command line options? The debugger is set up in the preferences with a valid path. See screenshots for the config cruft.

The failure popup seems to indicate it tries to use GDB? Sounds weird, as GDB is not set up for this toolchain (nor any other toolchain), but LLDB.

GDB and LLDM-MI use almost the same command set. You may get the additional info on how to set LLDB-MI up from the issue #236801.
