Error in vscode IDE : Inappropriate ioctl for devicee

[thknx]

gdb-dashboard works with standart terminals, but when I run it in vscode IDE, DebugConsole gives me there errors:

(Not: I tried on XOrg, I am using Debian10)

e[31mCannot write the dashboard
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 496, in render
  File "<string>", line 589, in get_term_size
OSError: [Errno 25] Inappropriate ioctl for device

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 498, in render
  File "<string>", line 589, in get_term_size
OSError: [Errno 25] Inappropriate ioctl for devicee[0m

I doubt that running the dashboard inside vscose is a viable setup. The dashboard needs a proper TTY and apparently vscode is not providing one.

Then why gdb-dashboard works on MacOS with same vscode =)

Different implementations of the "DebugConsole"? I don't know, I'm not a vscode user myself, let me try to reproduce this...

By the way, I use C/C++ Extension (by Microsoft) with below configuration: I have .gdbinit in my folder which does remote debug session. So when I press vscode-debug button it automaticly connects to remote gdb session (I mean without manually run gdb from terminal inside vscode)

# launch.json
{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "C++ Launch",
            "type": "cppdbg",
            "request": "launch",
            "program": "${workspaceFolder}/kernel",
            "stopAtEntry": false,
            "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}/",
            "linux": {
                "MIMode": "gdb"
            },
            "symbolLoadInfo": {
                "loadAll": true,
            },
          }
    ]
}

In any case even without that error the GDB terminal you end up with runs the GDB/MI interface meaning that you cannot just type commands (you need to use the -exec <command> syntax) plus you won't have the tab-completion. Last but not least (at least in my case) ANSI codes doesn't work...

The fix should avoid that error but I repeat that IMHO what you're trying to do is not a reasonable setup.
