amiga-debug Visual Studio Code Extension (Windows only)

One-stop Visual Code Extention to compile and debug Amiga C programs compiled by included gcc 8.3.0 in WinUAE.

Quick-start

No additional tools required. Everything is included (except Kickstart ROM 😒). Ready to go make your next Amiga 500 production!
State-of-the-art code generation by GCC with Link-Time-Optimizations (LTO) for increased performance and smaller code size
IntelliSense
Full source-level and assembly-level debugging with callstack, breakpoints, watches, registers, memory view with GDB-enabled WinUAE
Fully AmigaOS compatible via included .h files
INCBIN support
Output to debug console from WinUAE
WinUAE warp-launch (turbo-boot)
WinUAE warp-mode control from your Amiga project

amiga: View Memory, amiga: Set Force Disassembly, amiga: View Disassembly (Function) are available from the command palette Ctrl+Shift+P
WinUAE:
- ^ = single step, Pause = pause/resume Page-up = warp mode
- all necessary options are already configured for Amiga 500, Kickstart 1.3 (for debugging), if you want to change some things (resolution, window size, etc.) just go into the Configurations tab, select default, and hit Save

This extension is based in part on Marcel Ball's Cortex-Debug extension.

Some modifications of GCC are based on work by Stefan "Bebbo" Franke.

Amiga system-includes (NDK 3.9) copied from an installation of Bebbo's amiga-gcc and modified to work with GCC 8. Originally downloaded from http://www.haage-partner.de/download/AmigaOS/NDK39.lha

sometimes when you're multiplying 2 WORDs together, gcc tries to use a (slow) 32-bit multiply. So if you have performance-critical multiplications, consider using the muluw and mulsw functions from gcc8_c_support.h

finish package.json fertigmachen. Configs, settings, ...
store assembly breakpoints in one "virtual" file in breakpointMap (how?!)
when stepping out of IRQ handler, stack frames are corrupt until next step
disassemble address always creates new disassembly even if just stepping. check title of current disassembly window if current PC is in range.
sometimes fail at start: Unable to open 'main.amigaasm': Cannot read property 'customRequest' of undefined.
restartRequest not implemented
vscode.debug.activeDebugSession is undefined when program is stopped on entry
not getting handleThreadSelected(), thread ID now set in class
sometimes Pause/Resume button doesn't correctly switch to "Pause" icon while amiga program is running
step out of kickstart: set fake breakpoint at 0xfffffff, WinUAE should enter TRACE_RANGE_PC mode (TODO: tighten range around loaded program), but keeps breaking later
