Add sample CodeLLDB launch.json #1482

AE1020 · 2022-10-12T17:05:05Z

There is a section with instructions for setting up source analyzer in VSCode, but nothing for setting up debugging with CodeLLDB. This adds a sample configuration that may not be ideal, but appears to work for me.

To source highlight the snippet, uses JavaScript instead of JSON so that comments do not show up as errors highlighted in red (VSCode allows comments).

(I'm not using Windows... I saw the given pattern from another launch.json and just included it. Someone on Windows should edit that to be correct if it's not.)
