This is great. Pretty-printing of associative arrays is a
pretty big deal!
I'm having problems setting it up though.
You say the configuration is bundled since code-d 0.23.0 but
the newest version VSCode lets me select is `0.22.0 (1 year
ago)`.
yeah the readme is already written assuming I release the new
code-d release finally. Currently you still need to do it
manually.
When manually adding the script in `setupCommands` of my cppdbg
configuration:
```
{
"description": "Load D GDB type extensions",
"ignoreFailures": false,
"text": "-interpreter-exec console \"source
/path/to/gdb_dlang.py\""
}
```
It said `Undefined command: "import"` referring to line 1
`import gdb.printing`. It looks like it's interpreting
`gdb_dlang.py` as a shell script, so I changed `source` to
`python`, which gives the error "Python scripting is not
supported in this copy of GDB".
I have `GNU gdb (Debian 8.2.1-2+b3) 8.2.1`.
Maybe my version is too old (I'm used to that on Debian), or I
need to install some other module. I'll look into it later.
oh that's not good, I just saw it's only enabled when built with
python support, so some package maintainers might not choose to
do so. Considering this is the only real way to get this working
however I don't think I have another choice than assume the user
has a GDB with python enabled.
