Description Oyvind Harboe CLA 2009-09-18 09:55:19 EDT 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090803 Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Shiretoko/3.5.2

I've figured out why debug launch configurations saved in projects
"dissappear" when they are used on a different computer.

Typical scenario:

- create debug launch configuration
- use it
- save it (common->shared)
- copy the project to another computer

Sometimes the debug launch is available other times not. There are no error messages or indications as to what's wrong.

The reason is that there are properties saved in the debug configuration
that are invalid on another computer.

By removing these lines in .launch file, the launch configuration reappeared
in my case...

<listAttribute key="org.eclipse.debug.core.MAPPED_RESOURCE_PATHS">
<listEntry value="/nios2_test"/>
</listAttribute>
<listAttribute key="org.eclipse.debug.core.MAPPED_RESOURCE_TYPES">
<listEntry value="4"/>
</listAttribute>




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Create C++ debug configuration, use it, save it, share it and copy it to another PC.
