anybody having trouble setting breakpoints in suspend functions?

[ghedeon]

it's a known issue that it won't stop in channel's consumeEach, if that's your case

[kevinherron]

no, i just seem to only be able to hit a breakpoint once

[kevinherron]

it's in a suspending function

[kevinherron]

after the first time I have to break above it and force step my way into the function

[ghedeon]

If you're able to put up a small reproducable example I'd suggest to open an issue. Mine is here: https://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/KT-29426

My Kotlin breakpoints are not being hit in general, I have not yet determined why.

fortunately I am pretty good with a log statement her or there. It's kinda of an interesting constraint.

yeah I've seen both of these things, its pretty frustraiting. I feel like an undergraduate again debugging with println statements. also find myself writing a lot of static non-suspend functions and putting a breakpoint there. Also build/rebuild sometimes gettings my breakpoints working again. Its very disconcerting.

[kevinherron]

indeed....

[dewildte]

I have always believed the better you are with a debugger the worse the code you are writing is.
So far I have only needed the debugger when working with work code and not my own personal projects.

cool story eric, thanks for the on topic interjection

[dewildte]

IKR! Thanks for the sarcasm, it goes well with my morning coffee! lol
But I did not mean that as a jab to you...try not to be so sensitive it's not flattering.

[kevinherron]

@dewildte lol, sorry about that. was in a mood last night.

[dewildte]

@kevinherron I appreciate the apology, it's very big of you! No hard feelings.
