Debug profile launch target for json debug adapters

Open csnewman opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

Is there a way or future plans for adding a launch target (Project Properties -> Debug -> Launch) that allows you to specify (or define inline) a json debug adapter file?

Not sure if I am even close to the correct names, However I'm referring to "DebugAdapterHost.Launch /LaunchJson:"<path-to-the-launch.json-file-you-saved>"" style commands.

I currently use the setup described in https://github.com/Microsoft/MIEngine/wiki/Offroad-Debugging-of-.NET-Core-on-Linux---OSX-from-Visual-Studio , however not having to remember and run the command would be a lot easier (from the "start debugging" section), by just allowing me to specify a custom debug profile that does that command when I click debug.

Maybe I am missing some builtin VS mechanism for this?
