I placed a breakpoint where Stephen said to and after clicking run> start debugging(F5) the code proceeded to run normally with the initwindow() showing up up. I was not stopped at the break point.
Hi Alden,
You might be running a previously built version of your code, as I’m seeing a missing semi-colon on line 13.
Hello Tuomo,
I updated the missing semi-colon(I feel dumb after missing that) and the code still does not stop at breakpoint.
Sorry I am really new to this
Just to confirm, does it stop at all? Compilers and debuggers will sometimes skip a line due to optimizations made during compilation.
No it just runs normally and the initwindow pops up for a second.
Ok, I’ve tested the code on my end and launched the program in debugging mode by pressing F5 and have been able to activate a breakpoint. This could be a problem with your C++ extension in VSCode, can you try reinstalling it?
I’ve reinstalled it and nothing changes. Just to clarify what extensions are intended to be in my project because I have. Makefile Tools, vscode-icons, and c/c++.
The only extension out of those three we need is the C/C++ extension. Just to make sure, are you starting your program in debugging mode by going to Run > Start Debugging or by pressing F5?
Run > Start Debugging
Also I tried it with F5 and removed the other two extensions and it still does not work.
Hi Tuomo, I was messing around and fixed it. The solution was that I had to .cpp projects in the explorer. Main.cpp and axegame.cpp. I copied and pasted the code from axegame.cpp to Main.cpp and it works with the breakpoint.
