  • A boolean supportsConditionalBreakpoints in Capabilities indicates whether the debug adapter supports conditional breakpoints.
  • Adds an optional exceptionBreakpointFilters capability that lists the filters available for the setExceptionBreakpoints request.
  • Adds an optional restart attribute to the TerminatedEvent which can be used to request a restart of the debug session.

• 1.5.x:

  • A boolean supportsFunctionBreakpoints in Capabilities indicates whether the debug adapter implements the function breakpoints.
  • Renamed supportEvaluateForHovers in Capabilities to supportsEvaluateForHovers.

• 1.4.x:

  • Made the body of the InitializeResponse optional (for backward compatibility).

• 1.3.x: Version introduces support for feature negotiation.

  • The InitializeResponse has now attributes for these features:

  • Type Source supports optional origin attribute to provide information that is shown in the debug UI.
  • Type Source supports an optional adapterData attribute that the VS Code debug UI will transparently persists for breakpoints.
