Support integrated terminal
Closed this issue · 4 comments
It's of vital importance that the integrated terminal is supported because many c/c++ programs rely on standard input in which case it's impossible to debug through internal debug console.
Do we have any plans for this?
Set "openGdbConsole": true in your launch configuration, it should open a second GDB interface inside an integrated terminal in your IDE. Unix only.

@marechal-p Have you tried this on program with standard input like std::cin? It shows me ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/read.c: No such file or directory. error.
Besides, I don't think it's a good idea to open a gdb interface to use. It requires knowledge of gdb and, for many, it's hard to use.
Can't we launch integrated terminal when console is set to integratedTerminal or externalTerminal like most VSCode's extension do? For example, in VSCode's python extension:

My bad, I misunderstood. So running the inferior into an actual terminal displayed in the IDE, good idea!
