Cannot set debug configuration (gdb/C++)

[apalazzi]

I'm trying to set a debug configuration for my c++ project, but whatever I do it doesn't work, when I run M-x dape I'm prompted with

Run adapter: :type
---
gdb :request
launch :name
run with gdb :program
/path/to/build/app :cwd
/path/to/build :args
nil nil

I've put this in my init.el, but the result is the same if I put it .dir-locals.el

(setq dape-configs
      (list
       (list
        :type "gdb"
        :request "launch"
        :name "Run with gdb"
        :program "/full/path/to/your/build/funilib-test-app"
        :cwd "/full/path/to/your/build"
        :args nil))
      )

I also tried variations like

(
 (c-mode
  . ((dape-configs
      . ((:type "gdb"
                :request "launch"
                :name "Run with gdb"
                :program "${workspaceFolder}/build/funilib-test-app"
                :cwd "${workspaceFolder}"
                :args ())))))
 (c++-mode
  . ((dape-configs
      . ((:type "gdb"
                :request "launch"
                :name "Run with gdb"
                :program "${workspaceFolder}/build/funilib-test-app"
                 :cwd "${workspaceFolder}"
                :args ())))))
)

Still the same issue.

As it is the package is unusable, can someone please tell me what to do to configure dape for debugging?

Hello, you should be fine using the built in configuration for gdb.

Navigate to you project root dape followed Run adapter: gdb - build/funilib-test-app

So the debug configuration doesn't work and I have each time to navigate to my project root, set by hand the command line, parameters etc and run the debugger?
