rocgdb DAP (VS Code Debugger)

This repository contains a VS Code Debug Adapter Protocol (DAP) debugger for ROCm rocgdb.

Status

This is currently an early scaffold:

• Starts a DAP adapter (type: rocgdb) implemented in Node.js
• Spawns rocgdb --interpreter=mi2
• Intended to grow into full debugging support (breakpoints/threads/stack/variables) and AMDGPU-specific helpers (waves/lanes/registers/LDS/global memory)

Requirements

• VS Code >= 1.85
• ROCm rocgdb at /opt/rocm/bin/rocgdb (configurable via rocgdbPath)
• Node.js available on the remote/host where the extension runs (for the adapter)

Build

npm install
npm run build
