The Attachable tab lists the debug listing directories. From this tab you can add and remove debug listing directories. The Debugger uses this list in attachable mode to locate the debug listing files. When an AVM instance and the Debugger are on separate machines, the debug listing directories must be accessible to the Debugger machine via a mapped drive (Windows) or a mounted file system (UNIX). The following figure shows the Attachable tab.

You can generate the debug listing files either manually or automatically. For more information on generating debug listing files, see Debug listing files.
The Debugger automatically opens the Preferences dialog box to this tab if it is unable to locate a listing file for the attached process. For more information, see Debug listing files.
