Thanks, that is important to know. So maybe keeping "local" and "attach to local"
separate is important. DSF-GDB also has a separate "remote" launch. And eventually,
there will be "core".
In our meetings, with toyed with the following options:
1- Changing "attach to local" to simply "attach" and to let the user specify the target,
which could be localhost.
2- Add an attach option to the "remote" launch (which seems to have been your approach
as well for "local")
3- Add a 5th configuration type "attach to remote running application".
Since your experience has proved that adding an attach option to a launch didn't seem to please users,
I guess it is better to keep the concept of attaching separate, so we can ignore option 2/
My guess is that the "attach" launch is not the most commonly used anyway, so maybe making it slightly more
complex is ok. So I vote for option 1 (at least for now.)
How does that sound?
