   Hi Dovie Weinstock (@DovieW), I'm an AI Support assistant here to help with your issue. While the team reviews your request, I wanted to provide some possible tips and documentation that might help you in the meantime.

   Here are a few suggestions and references:

   • Remove the projectName from your attach configuration so the debugger will apply breakpoints across all loaded classes, e.g.:

   {
     "type": "java",
     "request": "attach",
     "hostName": "localhost",
     "port": 5005
   }

   This lets VS Code match breakpoints by fully qualified class name rather than a single project.

   • Use a compound launch configuration to fire off multiple attach sessions at once (even if they all hit the same port):

   {
     "compounds": [
       {
         "name": "Attach All Apps",
         "configurations": ["AppA","AppB","AppC"]
       }
     ],
     "configurations": [
       {
         "name": "AppA",
         "type": "java",
         "request": "attach",
         "hostName": "localhost",
         "port": 5005
       },
       { /* AppB, AppC defined similarly */ }
     ]
   }

   • Track the VS Code Java Debugger enhancement to allow multiple project names in one launch – this is exactly your scenario:

   • #1197: Allow multiple project names in launch.json

   • Java remote attach to debug not hitting breakpoints
     Explains suspend=y vs. suspend=n for JDWP; if your server fires code before attach, you may miss early breakpoints.
