I can’t debug imported module in project in Visual Studio Community 2019

Question

I’m using version 16.7.5 of Visual Studio Community 2019 where I’m implementing for the first time a pyproj (Python version 3.8.3) in a virtual environment env.

I installed the library elasticsearch-dsl in the virtual environment and ran the web application successfully, but while trying to apply a "breakpoint" on any line in the file C:\Users\User\source\repos\MeuProjeto\MeuProjeto\env\Lib\site-packages\elasticsearch_dsl\utils.py I find the following alert:

The breakpoint will not currently be hit. Breakpoint in file excluded by filters.
Note: may be excluded because of "justMyCode" option (default == true).Try setting "justMyCode": false in the debug configuration (e.g., launch.json).


Location: utils.py, line 68...

I searched some solutions for this and found in "Debug > Options > Debugging > General" the box "Enable Just My Code" qualified; however, even when unchecking it, there has been no change.

Is there anything else that can be done for me to try to solve this problem?

Answer 1

I found the option "Enable debugging of the Python standard library" within "Tools > Options > Python > Debugging" and together with "Enable Just My Code" in "Tools > Options > Debugging > General", the "breakpoint" works now.

Answer 2

For you to get debuggar your code, open the launch.json to create the file, right-click on an executable file in the Solution Explorer and choice Debug and Launch Settings, choose the option that best matches your project, open it and add this line json: "justMyCode": false.
