Re: [C++] Breakpoints and VSCode integration

Hi Ying,

If you manage to get the debugger to work nicely with VScode, could you
share the instructions on how to do set this up? I usually just use gdb,
but that can be a bit crude, would love to use a visual debugger sometimes.

Hi Ying,

You could also try the --gtest_break_on_failure flag (or equivalently the
GTEST_BREAK_ON_FAILURE=1 environment).

Hi Ying,

Have you tried using the given test executable as a debug target?
(something like build/debug/arrow-orc-writer.exe)

Also, it has various command-line options to change behaviour and narrow 
down the tests (I suggest trying --gtest_filter=...).


Regards

Antoine.

Hi,

To facilitate faster debugging I’d like to integrate make unittest debugging 
into VSCode (on Mac) so that when I run a test that might show some bugs 
breakpoints can stop the execution so that I can dig around a bit. Does anyone 
know how that can be done? I know it is a stupid question but it does need to 
be addressed so that I can finish the ORC writer with visitors ASAP.

Thanks,
Ying

[C++] Breakpoints and VSCode integration

[Ying Zhou]

Hi,

To facilitate faster debugging I’d like to integrate make unittest debugging 
into VSCode (on Mac) so that when I run a test that might show some bugs 
breakpoints can stop the execution so that I can dig around a bit. Does anyone 
know how that can be done? I know it is a stupid question but it does need to 
be addressed so that I can finish the ORC writer with visitors ASAP.

Thanks,
Ying
