[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] cross-debugging (#303)

[J-Dunn]

> Not all projects are cross-development projects.
It seems what is needed is a binary config ( checkbox ) which selects whether the debugging session is remote or not. It defaults to false. This is used to select the augmented commands needed in a remote session, as provided in the patch linked in #1. 

Since distros seem to handle what gets installed differently , there may be a need to specify a gdb path. A copy of gdb may or may not be in path and may or may not be the one required. It would be nice if this was configurable without the user needing to symlink outside of Geany. 

When flipping between two files or projects running in different contexts ( local/remote ), it is not unreasonable to expect to at least toggle the checkbox on the plugin. This state could be added to the project file.
