Readme documentation is outdated for VS Code 1.92.2, and debugger selection does not work

Open Lukenickerson opened this issue 5 months ago • 1 comments

Actual Behavior

  1. When you open the Extension in VS Code, the instructions there (which match the README), are inaccurate:
    • The debug environment has a different icon and is now called "Run and Debug"
    • It's not clear what the "View bar" is.
    • You need to click Run and Debug (also if you have an existing launch.json, you'll need to delete or rename it)
    • VS Code needs to be restarted before "Cordova" is listed as a debugger
  2. Selecting Cordova as a debugger does nothing; you need to click the link underneath it

Expected Behavior

  1. The documentation reflects the most up-ot-date VS Code, or the most common version of VS Code that users have.
  2. Selecting Cordova as debugger should create a launch.json if there isn't one already, using the checkbox interface to select options

Software versions

  • Cordova VS Code extension version: 2.7.0
  • VSCode version: 1.92.2
  • OS platform and version: Windows 10
  • NodeJS version: 20.5.0
  • Cordova version: 12.0.0
