It's very hand to be able to "drop to frame" (eclipse terminology) while debugging. Basically it allows you to restart at the beginning of a method (or any method on the stack).
This is especially useful when using DCEVM or jrebel to inject code changes and rerun them.
Environment
- Operating System: macOS 10.12.6 (16G1212)
- JDK version: 1.8.0_144-b01
- Visual Studio Code version: 1.20.0 (1.20.0)
- Java extension version: 0.18.1
- Java Debugger extension version:0.6.0
Steps To Reproduce
- set a breakpoint in the middle of a method and break there
Current Result
no way to restart method
Expected Result
key short cut or context menu option on stack to restart at top of method
