LogPoint stopped working v1.6.0

[jakarman]

Bug type: Debugger

• OS and Version: Windows 10 Home

• VS Code Version: 1.59.1

• C/C++ Extension Version: 1.6.0

• I just installed version 1.6.0, and the LogPoint functionality stopped working as it should. Instead of printing to the debug console, the message now stops as if it were a common breakpoint.

To Reproduce

1. Create a simple file of C++

#include <iostream>
#include<windows.h>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
  while (1)
  {
    Sleep(1000);
    cout << "Hello World" << endl;
  }
    
}

2. Compile the program
3. Add a Logpoint at cout << "Hello World" << endl;
4. Run the debugger.

Context

I'm using the default config for lauch.json to test the error. Using 1.5.1 works fine.

Can you share your launch.json or share which debugger type you are using?

Hi,

I'm using GDB with the cppgdb

This is a bug in v1.6.0. There will be a fix in the next release.

The current workaround is to use v1.5.1 if you need LogPoints.
