10 -c core ] -e executable... ]
11
13 cdtdebug is a graphical C/C++ debugger using Eclipse and gdb. The
14 debugger uses Eclipse plug-ins and features found in the eclipse-cdt
15 package and invokes an Eclipse application specialized to bring up just
16 the C/C++ debugging elements. The debugger can be used to debug exe‐
17 cutables, core files, and can also attach to existing processes.
18 Internally, gdb is used to perform the debugging tasks via the gdb/mi
19 interface. For more info, see the upstream wiki page
20 ⟨https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/StandaloneDebugger⟩.

23 Operation modes:
24
25 -h, --help
26 print help, then exit.
27
28 Indexing assist options:
29
30 -b build-log
31 specify build log to use for compiler includes/flags.
32
33 Target options:
34
35 -a attach to an existing process (list will be shown).
36
37 -c core
38 debug core file (need to also specify corresponding executable).
39
40 -e executable [ args... ]
41 debug given executable (passing args to main).
42
43 The -e option must be used last as subsequent options are passed to
44 main.
45
46 Specifying insufficient arguments for a particular target will result
47 in a dialog displayed to enter the required values for that target.
48 Specifying no target option brings up a dialog for debugging an exe‐
49 cutable with the executable path, program arguments, and build log
50 filled in from the last -e invocation, if one exists.
51
