Re: [cdt-dev] No source available for "main() "

[Subs <dmsubs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1. Unable to debug: You probably haven't built for debug. Use the -g -O0 
options to the compiler for debug build
2. Highlight moving randomly: This is probably becuase you have built 
for debug, but with a high level of optimisation. When optimised, the 
compiler will move code around to make it optimal, but this pretty much 
break the association with the source - hence what you are seeing.
