No "run" or "debug" options in Eclipse Helios

1.2k Views Asked by At

I am just switching from Visual Studio 2008 to Eclipse Helios for Mac OS X Leopard for C++ dev. I am importing a previous project with Makefile and although it compiles automatically without problems, there are no "run" or "debug" options anywhere, why?

It depends where you are looking for those menus, as illustrated in the bug 74116:

This has been changed to the following behavior in the "C/C++ Projects" view:

  • Right-click on a project or binary, gives Run/Debug with "Run Local C/C++ Application" as the first choice.
  • Right-click on a source file or folder gives no Run/Debug menu items
  • Right-click on another file gives the same Run/Debug menu items as in the Navigator view.
