dap-mode#
Summary#
Emacs client/library for Debug Adapter Protocol is a wire protocol for communication between client and Debug Server. It's similar to the LSP but provides integration with debug server.
Project status#
The API considered unstable until 1.0 release is out. It is tested against Java, Python, Ruby, Elixir and LLDB (C/C++/Objective-C/Swift).
Usage#
The main entry points are dap-debug and dap-debug-edit-template. The
first one asks for a registered debug template and starts the
configuration using the default values for that particular
configuration. The latter creates a debug template which could be
customized before running. dap-debug-edit-template will prepare a
template declaration inside a temporary buffer. You should execute this
code using C-M-x for the changes to apply. You should also copy this
code into your Emacs configuration if you wish to make it persistent.
dap-mode also provides a hydra with
dap-hydra. You can automatically trigger the hydra when the program
hits a breakpoint by using the following code.
(add-hook 'dap-stopped-hook
(lambda (arg) (call-interactively #'dap-hydra)))
