Comment 1 Alvaro Sanchez-Leon CLA 2014-03-13 14:38:12 EDT
When configuring a remote debug launch as per option 1 in:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ#How_do_I_debug_a_remote_application.3F

the current functionality expects a path to a file, 
The file may not exist as this is the location selected to upload the binary. 
  However the browse button allows the selection of a folder, so keeping the selected folder will fail, as this selection does not point to a file but folder.

This could be enhanced by allowing the user to specify a folder and create he same file name as the one being uploaded under the specified folder
