Debugger output and application stdout have to be splitted

[Ri0n]

vscode: 1.30.1
go ext: 0.8.0
go: 1.10.4
dlv: 1.0.0

Debug console is flooded with "Eval error: could not find symbol value for"

In valid scope it's resovled properly. but as soon as I start jumping between functions in step-by-step debugging it floods debug console with this making app's stdout almost unreadable.

I think there have to be two terminals. One for application output and another one for debugger output. And in fact vscode has both. But for some reason all the output from debugger itself and from the debugged application comes to "DEBUG CONSOLE".

That's how a debug adapter works by default in VS Code. But a debug adapter can implement Debug Adapter Specification - RunInTerminal and support a console debug configuration property allowing to select between running in internalConsole, integratedTerminal or externalTerminal.

Also see VS Code Documentation - Debugging - launch.json attributes.

vscode-go currently does not support that.

Thanks for the info. If ever start working on improving vscode-go I'll try to fix it and provide a PR.
But if guess it won't happen any soon. Thanks anyway.

#186 and #289 are tracking the requests to support console in debug configuration.
Closing this issue in favor of those issues
