The Visual Studio Code is a great tool which I use sometimes to write\/debug code snippets. It’s got everything you’d want: it’s modern, free, has got cloud plugins, it’s well documented, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a full experience you can integrate it easily with build\/debugging tools. That’s what I did with C++\/MSYS64 then you hit CTRL+F5 and it snaps a new build right away \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s say you are less than perfect and sometimes after a build you get some build errors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A dialog pops up asking if you want to see the errors or simply “Debug anyway” which will take you in a debug session on the old<\/em> executable. Not sure who would use that, especially since you hit CTRL+F5 (run without debugging) and not the F5 (start debugging)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Maybe that choice comes unexpected so you “Debug anyway” then tick the “Remember my choice in user settings”<\/strong>. Aaand that spells trouble :)) on new builds you’ll go auto-debug the old code, instead of some popup showing \/ clearly showing the Problems tab<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To restore showing the dialog on future builds<\/strong> you need to go to:
File > Preferences > Settings, then search for the “On Task Errors” then simply change to “prompt”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note, the above are valid at least with Visual Studio Code version 1.92.0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
