Re: [cdt-dev] CDT debugger question

Derek,

The best way to deal with this situation is to import your executable to the
project.
The second step is to assign a binary parser to the project. To do it open
the "C/C++ Build" property page of the project's properties and  select the
"Binary Parser" tab.
