Research direction

Start by tracing how jdt.ls handles multiple start debug session requests and assigns the debug port. Determine how separate sessions for different code should be represented and how completion is recognized; done means independent requests no longer return the same port and can debug different code concurrently.

Description

ai-triaged question

Now if i want to debug different code , i have to start a new jdt.js process to start a debug session. Can i start different debug session in one jdt.ls process to debug different code? i send several start debug session requests to jdt.ls but get the same port number.
