As a developer I want to be able to tell the debugger to build before launch in some cases but not others. For some projects I may have already built them outside of Eclipse and want to avoid the build-before-launch step. For others I want to make sure everything is built up-to-date before launch.
Created attachment 143688 [details] patch for this enhancement This patch adds this setting to CMainTab and the implementation to CAbstractLaunchDelegate.

Yes I need this feature too (as occasional C developer). I think "Enable build" be a checkbox instead of radio button (grayed out when use workspace is selected). I would also suggest to compress a composite in 2 rows. something like (*) Use Workspace Settings Configure Workspace Settings... [ ] Enable auto Build Build Configuration: [Debug v]

I've updated the CMainTab UI to use both rows as you suggested. I left the options as there were as the radio buttons reflect the three choices: always build for this launch, never build for this launch, use the workspace settings. We experimented with making this two related choices but people told us they found that approach was more difficult to understand.
Ok thanks
Fixed in HEAD.
