starting debugger and system reset

QUARTUS 5.0 NIOS 5.0  

 

when I start a program in debugger, I would expect that there is a cpu reset, 

before the program is downloaded. 

e.g. PIO outputs are reset to their defaults '0', and all peripherals can be  

reset to default state. 

 

but when I download a simple led program to the cyclone development board, I can 

see that the program stops in main in debugger with led's on. 

 

Why is there no reset, when I start a program in debugger?
