@Marmat21 I hope it's ok for you to document this based on your notes:
"""
To support the changes of batches 1 and 2 I did several improvements in the vscode plugin including:
Especially in the last weeks, however, I had many problems with the vscode plugin which I report here for completeness of information. Maybe @Stefan when you are back at work you can take a look at it.
The plugin is highly unstable. For example, if you recall, we asked the student to add a tree view for the promise groups to the debugger.
This has to be done through a treeviewprovider (see here). Adding such a provider and trying to do anything from the debugger.ts file makes it so that when you launch a somns program nothing actually happens.
And by nothing, I mean nothing. No sort of feedback is given in any of the outputs of the plugin.
This happens to both me and the student, and I have lost hours with other typescript/javascript colleagues to try and debug this, but we did not find a solution.
Also, I do not seem to be able to add a breakpoint in debugger.ts (while they work in extension.ts).
I am totally frustrated with this, and so is the student, so I hope you will be able to find a solution or he will have to move to the IntelliJ plugin.
