Home of the Dynamics 365 Business Central AL Language extension for Visual Studio Code. Used to track issues regarding the latest version of the AL compiler and developer tools available in the Visual Studio Code Marketplace or as part of the AL Developer Preview builds for Dynamics 365 Business Central.
1. Describe the bug
Even when you have "breakOnError": "All" in launch.json, debugger still don't stop on the error statement if it is a collectible error.
There is an option to skip errors when they happen in TryFunction, but it is not obvious why debugger should skip collectible errors. Stop will only happen when you step out of collecting functions and after this it might still be hard to understand why you stopped there and where actual error has happened. Ability to skip collectible errors might be a usegfull option for breakOnError though. But not when All is selected.

if Number <= 0 then
Error(ErrorInfo.Create('Number should be larger than 0', true, Rec, Rec.FieldNo(Number)));
if Number mod 3 = 0 then
Error(ErrorInfo.Create('Number should not be divisible by 10', true, Rec, Rec.FieldNo(Number)));

}
3. Expected behavior
Debugger stops on each error statement
4. Actual behavior
Debugger stops after PostWithErrorCollect finishes.
