Is there a keyboard shortcut (or combination of keystrokes) that would let me switch tasks on this toolbar in VS Code?
or this one?
Alternatively, is there a better workflow for debugging shared client/server code that requires two debugging sessions than doing it all in one view?
CodePudding user response:
I don't think there is an easy way to switch debug sessions by keystroke yet. See UI Issues with two simultaneous client/server debug sessions, switching debug sessions: issue is a backlog candidate, upvote it. Also https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/39560 and https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/108844.
In the meantime, for my extension upon request by a user I created a command to go to the next or previous debug session, see https://github.com/ArturoDent/launch-config/issues/11#issuecomment-1013606260 - but since there is no real supported way to do so it is a bit of a hack but does work.
Outside of my extension you can package the commands yourself via a macro extension like multi-command.
Try these keybindings:
{
"key": "alt k", // whatever keybinding you want
"command": "extension.multiCommand.execute",
"args": {
"sequence": [
"workbench.debug.action.focusCallStackView",
"list.selectAll",
"list.collapseAll",
"list.focusPageDown", // focus next debug session
"list.select"
]
},
},
{
"key": "alt i", // whatever keybinding you want
"command": "extension.multiCommand.execute",
"args": {
"sequence": [
"workbench.debug.action.focusCallStackView",
"list.selectAll",
"list.collapseAll",
"list.focusPageUp", // focus previous debug session
"list.select"
]
},
}
