I tried to use Visual Studio Code a few times. One time, I encountered an error related to OmniSharp, though I don’t remember the exact details. However, Python worked fine, for example. Then, I reinstalled Arch, and now I’ve decided to try using Visual Studio Code again because I need it to learn programming. Unfortunately, I just can’t make it work. When I start debugging, nothing happens—no errors, nothing…
I have installed everything needed(.net-sdk, mono). However, the problem is that I just can’t work with it properly. I am unable to run the debugger. When I press F5 and select a debugger, nothing happens. I managed to run a ‘hello world’ using the ‘dotnet run’ command, but that’s all. I have no idea how to fix it, and I can’t find any information about my issue.
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve used vscode, but you want to invoke the command pallet (Ctrl+P I think) and create a build profile/task/something. You then want to do the same for a debug profile. This will create two files under .vscode - you will need to edit the debug one to add the build task as a dependency for the debug profile.
You could also try running
dotnet buildin the terminal before doing what you are doing already.Also vscodium won’t work, the debugging plugin is closed source and is only available for vscode.
