anybody else rarely able to get a breakpoint to work inside a suspending function?

[elizarov]

As far as my experience goes, breakpoints work pretty reliably. If you have specific examples where they don’t, please file a bug to youtrack at http://kotl.in/issue

i’ll try to make something reproducable. they almost never work while running our product out of the IDE in debug mode

[kevinherron]

the only pattern i’ve maybe seen is that they will work if the breakpoint was set before the first time the code in question has been executed

[kevinherron]

they do not work on subsequent executions

[elizarov]

That is really really strange. Should not really matter.

[kevinherron]

it’s very strange. if i breakpoint outside the first suspending function i can walk my way down into it

[kevinherron]

but i cannot just break inside the suspending functions

Sometimes I notice it doesn’t break if I set a breakpoint when an application is already being debugged i.e. breakpoint needs to be set before app is launched

@kevinherron you can record a screencast for youtrack bug reports.
