In Visual Studio Code, is there a debugger that works with both Python and C++ codes where the former calls the latter? I have been using the "Python C++ Debugger" until it stopped working about a week ago after an VS Code update. Are there alternatives?

@starball: By "issue ticket" do you mean an error message? – Hans Jul 16 '23 at 05:32

@starball: Here is the website of the debugger https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=benjamin-simmonds.pythoncpp-debug. It does not seem to have a GitHub account. – Hans Jul 16 '23 at 07:52

@Hans Hi Hans, I think you may need to report the issue here: https://github.com/benibenj/vscode-pythonCpp/issues It is the project page of the extension you mentioned. :) – Bowman Zhu-MSFT Jul 17 '23 at 08:01

@Hans You can choose to roll back the version of VSCode, see my answer. :) – Bowman Zhu-MSFT Jul 17 '23 at 09:46

If the previous VSCode version works and only the latest version encountered this issue, why not roll back to the old version?
Please go to this website:

I don't know the specific OS type on your side, but if it is windows, follow the below:
You can download whatever version of VSCode you want.
By the way, for the report place of the extension you mentioned, you can go to this place:
