MoonSharp VSCode Debugger

This is an extension to allow debugging of MoonSharp scripts running inside other applications.

It requires the application to be embedding MoonSharp 1.8.0.0 (or later) and exposing the VSCode debugger extensions.

Features supported

• Connect to one script object embedded in an application
• Supports breakpoints, watches, local variables, self inspection
• Call stack, with visualization of current coroutine
• Watches can contain free formed expressions, as long they are side-effects free
• Inspection of values including internal ids and table contents
• Debugging of multiple script objects from the same vscode instance (MoonSharp 2.0 or later)

Features not supported

• Editing of values not supported
• No checks are made for file contents changes
• Due to how vscode works, token-based breakpoints are not supported
