Im having a Golang code which I create from it binary for mac via go build like:
build darwin amd64 myapp
Currently Im able to run the binary and see the logs.
Now I want to debug it , is there a way to debug the binary with Goland
or Intellij
or VSCode
? regular debug with delve
is working from all the IDE's above but now I want to attach it to the binary process which I was able to run,Any idea if it possible?
If you use GoLand 2018.1+ you should be able to use the Run | Attach to Local Process feature and it will allow you to debug a running binary.
I suggest that you compile the binary with all the optimizations turned off and compiled with Go 1.10+ in order to get the best debugging experience.
Furthermore, the IDE can launch the binary and debug it in a single click, removing the need to perform multiple steps.
One last issue that I can mention is that you currently will not be able to correctly debug Go apps via Delve, so regardless of which editor you use, due to a bug introduced by Apple in the latest developer tools. For more information please see the issue on our tracker: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/GO-5527 and on Delve's tracker: https://github.com/derekparker/delve/issues/1165
Edit:
The issue mentioned above was resolved in GoLand 2018.1.1.
