Debugger detaches when new window opens #367

Open devnull69 opened 4 months ago

devnull69 commented 4 months ago

I've successfully setup Firefox debugging in VSCode ... generally speaking. But whenever my app opens up a new window, the debugger seems to be detached from it. Only breakpoints of the original / main window work, the new window (even though showing in debugging mode) doesn't stop on breakpoints.

Is this expected behavior? Any setting/workaround for this?

Having same issue even in main window, breakpoints highlight as active, but no stop happens, the code fall straight to the xdebug.

News? It's impossible to debug application, when debugger doesn't budge.

Also, what it means that I should specify URL if I specified a webroot? And then it just outright ignores any pages other than the specified URL? How am I supposed to work?

It's even worse. My application uses custom interlinks to refer to in-app entities. A simple el.dispatchEvent(new PointerEvent('click')) on an element with such link will successfully send the debug adapter into an infinite wait state, effectively decommissioning it.
