CLion Debug not working on Mac

Question

I haven't used CLion in a bit and something is amiss - when I try to debug, breakpoints are not hit. I see the checkmark flash briefly but the program continues to run. Here is a 15 second video showing what happens:

This project is the vanilla Hello World project with a couple of lines of code added to the main program, and a breakpoint added in the middle.

This is a new Mac - is something misconfigured? Or has something broken in CLion?

Note: This is still happening with 2018.1. I've reported to JetBrains and sent various logs, etc., but still no ability to debug.

Answer 1

I'm using a Mac with the latest version of OSX (10.13.4 as of writing), and also using CLion 2018.1.2. I had this same issue.

The fix was straight forward. Simply go to Tools > CMake > Reset Cache and Reload Project.
