Description
When we're stopped at a breakpoint, we can use a REPL (e.g. in VSCode) to evaluate expressions.
However, that is a bit limited in that it only prints expressions, while being useless in controlling the debugger.
I propose to make the REPL in DAP mode make available the full cli
mode (as in, the standalone hdb
mode).
This will allow the user to still print expressions (with print <expr>
or p <expr>
), but also do more complex tasks such as starting programs and defining variables.
This mimics the behavior of e.g. the Xcode debugger, where a breakpoint in a Swift program will have the high level utilities with a side panel for lldb
commands.
