Hello everyone, I'm Capricornian, and I'm using VS Code to code and build my CP submissions.
I'm now using a debug template and stderr for debugging. But I really want to debug my C++ program with GDB for better performance. (I'm using GNU GCC 8.1.0 (MinGW))
And when I try to configure GDB to use on VS Code, I found a very tricky problem, which I try to solve it for many days but it didn't work at all.
On VS Code, you have to configure .vscode folder, which contains 2 most important files launch.json, tasks.json so you can build and debug the program. And here is my launch.json and tasks.json :
(You can see my compiler path inside this file, and you can change it to test on your local computer).
https://pastebin.com/4ddJ4se1 : tasks.json
https://pastebin.com/vM8TkX9X : launch.json
It may looks good and works perfectly, but when I start debugging my program using F5, then VS Code just build my source code (so I have a .exe file) and after that, the PowerShell pops up and try to start a debug process, and then, the process stucked, and I can't debug anything.
I have tried many ways, searched for many websites and applied many fixes, but it still get stucked.
So, please, I need you test these files and please help me find a problem, or show me how did you configure C++ build and debug process in VS Code with no problem.
I will give everything you need to help me solve this mess, so just ask me in the comment section below, I will try to answer ASAP.
I will be very pleased if anyone can help me solve this tricky problem, and thank you very much for that effort.
Best regard,
Capricornian
UPD: Here are the screenshots of my problem
