Set the breakpoints in the IDE as usual.

To diagnose the problem, raise a deliberate exception like this in your
code:

assert 0, "deliberate exception"

Then see if the IDE manages to bring up the file.  It may not because 
you may need to set up a file location map if you are debugging host to 
host.  That is documented here:

Please let me know if this does not help.

Thanks,
