Is codelldb necessary? #54

Closed Cons-Cat closed 7 months ago

Cons-Cat commented 8 months ago

I'm trying to understand why codelldb is recommended rather than the LLDB binaries from the LLVM repository directly. As I understand it, editors should be able to run the lldb-vscode binary directly, and that would make it much easier for users to keep up with the latest fixes and features of LLDB. Are there important features provided by codelldb for this?

GDB also supports the DAP, but is not supported by codelldb.

My understanding of dape-mode has grown, disregard the silly question :P
