Debugger

Hi All,


Right now we don't have anything to debug the extension code in the Outsystems. If I want to debug the code on runtime, I can't do in outsystems extension. Please if you can provide such features in OS.


Thanks,

There *is* a way to do it, just a massive pain in the neck. I don't have the instructions handy, but basically you attach a Visual Studio debugger to the IIS server.

Hi James,

Thanks for your response. I am also doing same but this is not possible to all developer or who do not have RDP access.  Outsystems is a very good product in the market and according to me they can find something so all developers can debug very easily without IIS access.


Thanks,

Rajat Agrawal

Hi Community,

Since we know that the existing way of debugging the extension is not really helpful for all since the access to IIS is a rare commodity, also the non-OnPrem apps are still helpless in this regard.

This will really reduce developers pain and also improve timely delivery of apps instead of adding Loggers and observing them via ServiceCentre which infact is not always helpful in solving problems.

This actually is a known concern but surprisingly the community is quiet on this and/or seems to have made peace with it or have accepted it as an limitation of OutSystem/LowCode platform. 

OutSystems need to take this as a serious open challenge.


Thanks AWL!
