Attention

This extension should work with vscode-leetcode

Debug a Problem

Currently debug-leetcode only support Python3, Javascript and cpp language and in the future we will support more lanuages which support vscode debug protocal. Welcome to get PR for another language. My next plan is to support c and java.

Not all problems are supported(most free problems are supported) and only supported problems have debug option.

If you have any issue about the debug feature, you can create a issue with detail information

Python3 debug

Requirement

• Step 1. Install the Python extension for Visual Studio Code.

• Step 2. Install a supported version of Python3 on your system (note: that the system install of Python on macOS is not supported) and add python command to your environment.

Cpp debug

gdb

Requirement

• Step 1. Install the C/C++ extension for Visual Studio Code.

• Step 2. Install MinGW Windows or sudo apt-get install build-essential gdb for linux on your system and add gcc and gdb command to your environment.

• Step 3. You'd better read the document on vscode website about the example and how to debug cpp on corresponding system.

MacOS clang

• Step 1. Install the C/C++ Clang Command Adapter for Visual Studio Code.

• Step 2. Install [CLang]document on vscode website.

• Step 3. Set debug-leetcode.cppCompiler to clang

Javasript debug

Nothing just vscode

Be careful ❗️

Extention will generate some stub code in your current file like:

For python:

# @before-stub-for-debug-begin
from python3problem1 import *
from typing import *
# @before-stub-for-debug-end

For javascript

// @after-stub-for-debug-begin
module.exports = twoSum;
// @after-stub-for-debug-end

If you delete some stub code and forget to restore, you can delete all the stub code and the extension will generate again in next debug.
