Preventing multiple debug sessions for Mac apps?
When working with my Mac projects, I am getting frustrated by the fact that starting a Debug session seems to create a new debug session rather than stopping and starting an existing debug session.
I know that I can choose to Rerun the session from the debugger commands, but I'd much rather the iOS development behavior where I am prompted to kill the existing application before starting a new debug (or run) session.
Is there a setting that I'm overlooking, or is this a bug(/feature?) specific to Mac projects?
Thanks,
Chris

In AppCode 2.0 EAP there is an option for every Run Configuration (you can also set it as a default) - Single instance only:

Perfect—thanks!
Where do I set it as the default? I would recommend defaulting to that behavior for OS X targets in AppCode, since it is more annoying than helpful in practice.
I apologise for misleading you - there is no default setting at this moment.
