Unable to manually pause execution while debugging in VS Code
Unable to manually pause execution while debugging in VS Code
Hi, I've tried searching for this topic but I can't find a single mention of anything about it. I've recently gotten my hands on an ESP-Prog, and while getting familiar with JTAG debugging, I've noticed that I'm unable to manually pause execution of a running program, neither by clicking on the pause button, nor by pressing the F6 shortcut. If I instead use gdb from the command line, I can CTRL-C to pause a running program, so I know it should be possible. What I'd like to know is if my inability to pause while debugging in VS Code is due to a bug, limitation, or misconfiguration of the esp-idf plugin, and whether I can do anything about it.

Hello! Thank you for reporting the problem.
It is a bug and regression; I'll take the task to fix this and then return to you with the results.

Ah, somehow I had missed your response until now. Thanks for looking into it, it's good to know that it's not just me. In the meantime I'll work around it by making sure I always have at least one breakpoint active.

Hello,
I have the same behavior. Impossible to pause execution.
Some news about this bug ? A correction or a workaround ?
Best regards.
