TestItems: debugger crashes in vscode

General Usage

1

I start the debugger on a @testitem that runs perfectly fine without debugger. Putting in a breakpoint (at some line in the @testset) and then trying to debug causes the debugger to crash:

[ Info: Julia test item process launching

Anyone some idea what’s wrong? Thanks.

Can you try with the prerelease version of the extension? You can switch between them in the VS Code extension manager.

@davidanthoff I installed the latest MS VSCode and installed the vscode-julia-extension and enabled Pre-Release version. Test runs fine, but debugger still crashes (with a different error, however):

I finally tried with a locally compiled version of Julia (1.12-DEV),
however without success: debugger still crashing:

@davidanthoff Progress: I can debug now with setup=[SetupMod] but not with setup=[SetupMod,SetupSnippet]. Works for me for now.
