The debugging from lldb command to Xcode 8 GUI

Question

By the machine of Mac OS X EI Captain (10.11.6) / Xcode(8.0(8A218a)),

there is executable binary file with the debugging symbol

which was created by g++ -g - c <name> *.cpp .

This can be debugged in lldb of the command line.

I wants to debug this by the GUI of Xcode8, but is it possible?

When possible, please tell me the procedure on Xcode8?

Regards

To do this:

create a new project from the External Build System template
set the Build Tool for the target to
```
/usr/bin/true
```
, so it does nothing
edit the scheme for that target such that it runs your tool (Product > Scheme > Edit Scheme > Run > Info > Executable)
run it in normal way (Build > Run)

If you want to set breakpoint in the code, add that code to your project.
