Description Miwako Tokugawa CLA 2009-03-27 17:35:49 EDT 
Build ID: I20090313-0100

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create a C project and starts Debug configurations..
Then create a new config under C/C++ Application.
There're two Debugger tabs.
The first one has gdb/mi and the second one has gdb server debugger.
Similarly create a new config under "C/C++ Attach to Application". 
There're also two Debugger tabs. The first one has gdb/mi and gdb server debugger listed. The second one has red cross mark and has no debugger is listed.

Postmortem Debugger has only one tab and looks ok.

If you look a the bottom of your launch window you will see a link that allows you to specify which debugger to use: the Standard (CDI) or the new DSF-GDB one.  Once you have selected your debugger, the extra tabs will disappear.  You can also set a default in the preferences (which you can access through the link I just mentionned.)

There are a couple of bugs open about the fact that multiple tabs are showing up at the start.  I don't have their number off the top of my head...

This bug should probably be marked as a duplicate of one of these platform bugs, but I'll let Ken deal with it since it is not in my component.

Technically speaking this bug is a duplicate of bug 262840, but it also relates to a larger usability problem with the multiple launchers in CDT 6.0.  I filed a separate bug to track that issue: bug 270334.
