This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Until recently, whenever I was asking to debug a native C++ program, Netbeans would ask me to select what executable to debug by giving me a list of all binaries from all directories in the "prefix" build target. Now it does not do it anymore. I tried closing Netbeans and rebuilding the project from the start (configure.ac -> configure -> ...) then restarting Netbeans, but the issue remains. Then I tried to manually select the executable, but I don't see any file in the directory. If I switch from "Elf Executable Files" to "All Binary Files", I see them. The file I was trying to point to is clearly an ELF: /tmp/build/bin/project: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, with debug_info, not stripped
