Hi,
I've been trying out the lldb-vscode extension bundled with LLVM. I managed
to get it working flawlessly on Linux but I'm having trouble getting it to
work on Windows. When starting the debugger with a simple hello world
program built with CMake, it hangs indefinitely without outputting any kind
of error or log (as far as I can see). The Windows debugger bundled with
the official Microsoft VSCode C++ extension does not have this problem.
I installed the extension by creating the llvm-org.lldb-vscode-0.1.0 folder
in the vscode extensions folder in my home directory (as detailed in the
lldb-vscode readme). I then copied the following files into this directory:
- lldb-vscode/package.json -> package.json
- llvm/bin/liblldb.dll -> bin/liblldb.dll
- llvm/bin/lldb-vscode.exe -> bin/lldb-vscode.exe
I confirmed the lldb-vscode.exe executable inside the extension folder
starts correctly from within a Windows cmd console. I then created a VSCode
launch.json file with the following contents:
{
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"type": "lldb-vscode",
"request": "launch",
"name": "Launch",
"program": "${workspaceRoot}/build/main.exe",
"args": [],
"env": [],
"cwd": "${workspaceRoot}"
}
]
}
When starting the debugger, it hangs indefinitely instead of running and
printing "Hello, World!" as expected. I also confirmed the lldb-vscode.exe
was actually started by VSCode by checking the Windows Task Manager.
I'm hoping to fix this but I'm not sure how to proceed. I have two
questions:
1. Is this problem specific to my Windows installation or a general problem
with lldb-vscode? If someone could try to reproduce the problem it would be
much appreciated.
2. How do I go about debugging this issue? I could not find any debugger
logs even after setting VSCode's log level to trace. Any pointers on
getting started with this would also be appreciated.
Regards,
Daan De Meyer
