Breakpoint not getting hit [message #1785310]

I had used the following setup to debug with eclipse sometime back.

Now wanted to use again and breakpoint is not getting hit.

Actually, the code is in svn at following place:
/root/src

After the make, the executable gets generated at above path ./out/x86/output

Now in eclipse I want to run that executable, with debug information from the above source file. So following steps are done:

1.Open eclipse, with the project to debug in the workspace.
2.Make project (so that output is created in /root/src/x86
3.Create symbolic link to output (ln -s out/x86/output /usr/output/output)
4.Click on Run->Debug Configurations
4.Double click on C/C++ Application.
5.Click on Browse. Navigate to and select the symbolic link created above.
6.The name of the project will usually be '<Project Name> Default' - no need to change.
7.Click on Arguements tab. Unselect 'Use default' and use 'File System' tab to navigate to project 'src' directory (e.g. /root/SVN_ROOT/Projects/SoftCore/branches/V3_Trunk/src).
8.Click on Debugger tab. Unselect 'Stop on startup at: main'
Apply changes.
9.Set any required breakpoints, and run the debug configuration (little green bug icon).

But somehow the breakpoint is not getting hit.

I tried to enable the "Start on startup at main", and i can see the breakpoint hit at main, and if i put another breakpoint on same file on next line gets skipped.

Please help me
