Enable breakpoints in assembly files

Open UARTman opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

This edit allows breakpoints in assembly files, which allows for much better debug experience. I've tried this with NASM and the vscode C/C++ debugger and it worked perfectly.

Hi,

I'm actually not sure what this change is supposed to do.

The contributes.breakpoints is for debugger extensions. But asm-code-lens is no debugger.

It might be that you are able to set a breakpoint visually in vscode if this is added to package.json, but asm-code-lens will not do anything.

Please see: https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/contribution-points#contributes.breakpoints

I guess this instead should be added to some x86 debug adapter extension.
