MSVC debugging support

已回答

Hello. I stopped using CLion a while ago due to the lack of MSVC debugging support (despite CLion being my favourite CMake C++ IDE in all other regards).

I noticed a forum post indicating that the 2019.2 EAP build contains experimental MSVC debugging and obviously this made me pretty excited.

How complete is this? I understand there will probably be missing components and bugs since it's still in development but I am very curious.

Hi! 

The current state of MSVC debugging support is described in the blog post you're referring to: https://blog.jetbrains.com/clion/2019/06/clion-2019-2-eap-msvc-debugger-unused-includes-check-and-more/#msvc_debug.

Do you have any particular questions?

Note that EAP builds are free to use, so you can try using it.

Ah great thanks for the link. I actually heard about it from one of the posts in this forum so I didn't realise there was a blog post about it :)

Oh, sorry for misunderstanding! Feel free to share questions if they appear.

I gave this a whirl today and it works great! It's awesome to see it working especially since I only stopped using CLion a while back due to the lack of debugging support.

 

The articles mention that "break on exceptions" is not implemented. Is this something being worked on? Just curious as this is probably the missing debugging sub-feature I use most often.

Aaron, thanks a lot for the positive feedback!

We plan to implement it, but, unfortunately, I can't give you any ETA. Please comment or upvote https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/CPP-14564 in order to get updates.
