Is cwd configuration field working?

[cirelli94]

I recently switched to delve and I can't change the current working directory anymore, and the default is now /tmp, no more the default workspace folder!

Am I the only one with this problem?

@cirelli94 what's your launch configuration, and can you enable logging to see what's going on?

My launch.json is:

{
    // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
    // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
    // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "Launch Package",
            "type": "go",
            "request": "launch",
            "mode": "auto",
            "program": "${workspaceFolder}",
            "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}"
        }
    ]
}

I enabled the logging and I understood my problem.

I'm retrieving the executable base directory programmatically, not the cwd, so I had to change, in launch.json the value of:

            "output": "${workspaceFolder}/my-bin"

So that the binary of the debugee is put in my workspaceFolder.

Final launch.json result:

{
    // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
    // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
    // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "Launch Package",
            "type": "go",
            "request": "launch",
            "mode": "auto",
            "program": "${workspaceFolder}",
            "output": "${workspaceFolder}/ercole-agent"
        }
    ]
}
