Example launch.json config for sudo/su? #132

Open sburlappp opened 4 years ago

sburlappp commented 4 years ago

How would I set up a debug session for local code running as a different user (like root)?

Would I do it via "sudo" or "su", or by setting up a "remote" debug session via localhost?

Could you please provide an example launch.json section?

It’s a question for SO - You can try changing the configuration to do ‘su && perl’ as exec - either hardcode the username and password or use vs code for prompting. (Read vs code documentation task/launch for input/prompt for values)
