You can edit a launch configuration that you have already
created by following the steps in this topic.
Procedure
- In a workbench perspective that offers the launch/debug/run
action set (such as the Debug perspective), perform one of the following
tasks:
- Select Run > Debug Configurations from
the workbench menu bar to open the Debug launch
configurations dialog box.
- Click the down arrow next to the workbench toolbar Debug push
button and choose Debug Configurations from
the list. This will open the Debug launch
configurations dialog box.
- In the Debug launch configurations
dialog box, select the launch configuration that you want to edit.
You might need to expand the launch configuration type node to find
the launch configuration.
- When you select the launch configuration, its settings
display on the right-hand side of the Debug launch
configurations dialog box.
- Edit these settings as required. Further information about
these settings can be found in debugger help task files which describe
creating launch configurations.
- If all information mandatory to the launch configuration
has been provided, the Debug and Apply push
buttons will be enabled. Clicking Apply will
save the launch configuration, at which point you can choose to close
the dialog box without launching the debug session or you can click
Debug to launch a debug session using the
new launch configuration. If you click Debug,
any changes to the launch configuration will be saved and a debug
session will be launched.
Tip: If you have
not yet saved launch configuration settings and if you have made entries
in the launch configuration settings that you want to remove or change,
clicking Revert will remove all changes that
you have made.
- If information mandatory to the launch configuration has
not been provided or if there are errors in the information that you
have provided, messages at the top of the dialog box will indicate
what is missing.
- When you are finished working in the dialog box, click
Close to exit it.
