Thank you for reporting this issue. We’ll let you know if we need more information to investigate it. Additionally, if you're working with GDB/LLDB, please note that the code is open source at https://github.com/microsoft/MIEngine/wiki/Contributing-Code . Your contributions are always welcome and appreciated.
Subham (@Subham-KRLX) This might be a bug with the MIEngine repo.
Hi Sean McManus (@sean-mcmanus), thanks for the pointer!
I’m not familiar with the MIEngine codebase yet, but I’d like to help investigate and potentially fix this issue.
Would you be able to give me a quick hint about where in MIEngine the debugger command arguments are constructed or passed to WSL?
Any extra guidance or file/function pointers would really help me get started faster.Subham (@Subham-KRLX) I have not done any work on MIEngine or the debugger in general (I work on the language service component). We do not currently have a developer working on the cpptools debugger specifically but you can see the commit history at https://github.com/microsoft/MIEngine/commits/main/ for the developers that are working on MIEngine. Our debugger source is generally located at https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-cpptools/tree/main/Extension/src/Debugger . The MIEngine component is bundled in as part of our build process. I do not know if the source of the bug is with our code in this repo or MIEngine (or somewhere else).
Thank you for the guidance and for pointing me to the right code locations. I took a look but realized I don’t have the bandwidth to fully tackle this right now. I had prefer to pass this along happy to follow along and help review if someone else picks it up. Thanks for your understanding!
Environment
Bug Summary and Steps to Reproduce
Bug Summary:
From the Debug Console:
Starting: "wsl" "/usr/bin/gdb-multiarch --interpreter=mi"
/bin/bash: line 1: /usr/bin/gdb-multiarch --interpreter=mi: No such file or directory
"wsl" exited with code 127 (0x7F).
This appears to be due to that fact that VSCode passes "/usr/bin/gdb-multiarch --interpreter=mi" as a single argument and "/usr/bin/gdb-multiarch --interpreter=mi" is not a file.
