Noob: How to detach debugger?
« on: January 28, 2016, 07:14:49 pm »
Hello everyone,

Sorry for the noob question but I'm just getting started with Code::Blocks.  I've searched online and in the forums here but couldn't find the method for detaching the debugger from a running process.  I *sort of* figured it out (I think) by pausing the debugger and then issuing the 'detach' command in the debugger window.  However, I don't think this is the proper way to do it since whenever I make code changes and need to recompile it asks me to stop the debugger first (although my application still runs when I stop it through that prompt) and the debugger finally seems to stop when I close the application I'm working on.  I noticed under the Debug menu the 'Detach' command is grayed out at all times as well.  Thanks and sorry again for such a dumb question!

Why do you want to detach in the first place?
