Description

Bug Description:

In Theia while debugging using our own debugger extension, menu item Restart Frame is available for any Call stack frame in Call stack View.

However this behavior does not occur in VsCode since we explicitly declare that this operation is not supported as DA specification describes: setSupportsRestartFrame(false);

Additional Information

  • Operating System: Windows 10
  • Theia Version: Master branch

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check how the 'Restart Frame' action's enabled state is computed in the debug UI. Look for where `supportsRestartFrame` is checked and why it might be ignored.
