Breakpoints not being hit reliably

[Francis-Smith]

Hi, thanks for this fantastic project - I'm really looking forward to trying it out properly. But....

I've been playing around with the project it creates out of the box for a couple of hours, and it seems that sometimes break points hit and then other times they don't.

I'm sure it's something to do with my setup but no idea what it could be. I have disabled other extensions that might conflict - I use the Amiga Assembly extension by Paul Reingeard for example. I've played with different optimisation settings in the Makefile but nothing seems to make it work reliably.

I'm not sure if this sentence is factual :D - but it 'feels' like if I do a clean/compile cycle, it's more likely to hit the first or second run. But then I can run it 5,6,7 times and breakpoints never hit. Then suddenly it'll work for a couple of runs again.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Do you have a concrete repro case ? Then I can take a look at it. I know there are some cases where breakpoints don‘t hit because of optimized code …

Hi, thanks for quick response. Sent you an invite to the repo.
It's CPP rather than C, not sure if that is the problem??

Thanks for the invite. What are the exact steps you did where the breakpoints didn't hit?

Lines 23, 30, 43 in main.cpp
Line 23 usually hits the first time after a build. But then might take 5 or 6 runs before it triggers again.

I've been playing with regular .c this morning - that seems to be much more reliable so I suspect it's something to do with it being cpp, but only guessing! :D
