# HXCPP Debugger

[![CI](https://img.shields.io/github/workflow/status/vshaxe/hxcpp-debugger/CI.svg?logo=github)](https://github.com/vshaxe/hxcpp-debugger/actions?query=workflow%3ACI) [![Version](https://vsmarketplacebadge.apphb.com/version-short/vshaxe.hxcpp-debugger.svg)](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=vshaxe.hxcpp-debugger) [![Installs](https://vsmarketplacebadge.apphb.com/installs-short/vshaxe.hxcpp-debugger.svg)](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=vshaxe.hxcpp-debugger)

This VSCode extension allows you to debug [HXCPP](https://haxe.org/manual/target-cpp-getting-started.html) applications.

## Usage

To debug a HXCPP application, it needs to be compiled with the `hxcpp-debug-server` library and in debug mode. First, run the "HXCPP: Setup" command from the command palette (F1) to install the library.

Then the library needs to be included in your project:

* `build.hxml`:

	```

	-lib hxcpp-debug-server

	```

* Lime/OpenFL `project.xml`:

	```

	

	```

Finally, you need a launch configuration:

```json

{ 

    "version": "0.2.0",

    "configurations": [

        {

            "name": "HXCPP",

            "type": "hxcpp",

            "request": "launch",

            "program": "${workspaceFolder}/bin/application.exe"

        }

    ]

}

```

Replace `/bin/application.exe` with the path to your executable file.
