New feature request: Script and stored proc debugging

[doitlikepruett]

It would super great if there was a built in debugger like SSMS has.

Currently the SQL Server debugging protocol is built on DCOM and Windows RPC, so we don't have a cross-platform stack available. I'll add this to the backlog, perhaps this is something we could look at as a Windows-only feature based on customer demand. Building a new debugging protocol can't be done at the tools level and would require significant engine work (but it has been discussed internally).

👍 would also like Azure Data Studio to support debugging so the PowerShell extension's debugger can be used!

[tgchip]

Would an Azure Data Studio debugger capable of debugging Postgres stored procedures be considered at some point?

[svanschuyver]

I would really love to see this feature.

Yes! Yes! Please add a debugger. This would be a massive timesaver

SQL Server DCOM Windows RPC remote debugging is basically unavailable. Is there any way to solve the problem of remote debugging not being available.

[lozn00]

Or is there a way to take a different approach, debug, break down stored procedures or SQL into individual statements, and build your own debugger to achieve remote code debugging
