Description Vladimir Kvashin 2016-05-23 21:18:14 UTC 
I have a makefile based project that has "build result" field not set.
I ran this binary in terminal.
Then tried to attach to it; when attaching I selected the project binary belonged to.

When Ilia tried this today evening, he's got "wrong argument" (or "incorrect argument") dialog. When I did this, no dialog appeared, but the debugger did not work properly.

The gdb log showed that the IDE tried to pass the project directory as a path to symbol file:

10-file-symbol-file  "/home/vk/testcode/misc/dlight.remote.impl/tools/fs_server"
...
10^error,msg="/home/vk/testcode/misc/dlight.remote.impl/tools/fs_server: Inappropriate ioctl for device."
Comment 1 Vladimir Kvashin 2016-05-23 21:19:38 UTC 
If I select "no project" when attaching, I see no such effect.
