support vim #65

Closed epheien closed 4 years ago

epheien commented 5 years ago

vim can support rplugin via some compatible layer, like deoplete and ncm2 Can nvim-gdb support vim?

sakhnik commented 5 years ago

This becomes a frequent question: see #55, for instance. I believe the plugin can be ported to Vim8, but the change wouldn't be straight forward. I'm quite satisfied with NeoVim, so I'm not going to do the porting. But if anyone did it, I'd happily accept a pull request. Could you do that?

I just write a similar plugin https://github.com/epheien/termdbg use raw vimL. I prefer vimL for debugger pluggin, because I think, debugger is not performance sensitive. But I have not much free time to support lldb and gdb. With newer gdb version, gdb has a new-ui interface for debugger intergrate with vim, see :h terminal-debug in vim8.1.

If I have enough free time, I will try to port to vim8.1.

The code has gradually become more and more neovim-specific. I don't think it'll ever be ported to Vim.
