Im new to eclipse on Mac OS and I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a debugger issue I am having. I'm currently on Mac Mojave, and I installed my gdb files. I receive this error when trying to launch the debugger:

Failed to execute MI command:
-file-exec-and-symbols /Users/matt/eclipse-workspace/rain/Debug/rain
Error message from debugger back end:
"/Users/matt/eclipse-workspace/rain/Debug/rain": not in executable format: file format not recognized
Failed to execute MI command:
-file-exec-and-symbols /Users/matt/eclipse-workspace/rain/Debug/rain
Error message from debugger back end:
"/Users/matt/eclipse-workspace/rain/Debug/rain": not in executable format: file format not recognized
"/Users/matt/eclipse-workspace/rain/Debug/rain": not in executable format: file format not recognized

Thanks & Regards
Sonya from ischedule

What language are you using? If it's C/C++ it's likely better to ask on the CDT forum:

I don't use Mac OS but the error is:
"/Users/matt/eclipse-workspace/rain/Debug/rain": not in executable format: file format not recognized

Is /Users/matt/eclipse-workspace/rain/Debug/rain the executable?
Are you sure it was built without errors?
Was it built to run on a Mac or some other target?
