'Debug in Eclipse while running from command line ubuntu

Is there a way I can debug my application (using breakpoints in eclipse) while running it from command line (ubuntu)? I'm using Eclipse Kepler version on Ubuntu 12.04LTS.

I know there's something like attach to process in .net, was wondering if eclipse has some such setup.

Thanks,

Is your application written in C or in Java?

If your application is in C and you are using CDT, you can attach to existing project by:

  1. Run your application from terminal.
  2. In Eclipse CDT, go to main menu "Run"->"Debug Configurations...", double-click "C/C++ Attach to Application" and press "Debug" (you should not need to specify executable and/or project).

For Java applications, see this
