How can I view (debug) a core dump file in the IDE?

I'm hosted in Windows attached to a remote machine running 6.3.2 (x86).  I want to debug the core dump file to see where
/why my program crashed.

Thanx
Tim

Create a new debug launch configuration (using "Open Debug Dialog" in the Debug perspective) and select C/C++ Postmortem
 Debugging and then select the binary and corresponding core file.

No there is only general documentation on debugging, we have a problem 
report about it for IDE 4.5.
