Mac OS Monterey + IOS Simulator. Debugger isn't attached.

[valera1401]

Run the app with VS Code "Launch on IOS".

Got the output:

Opened localhost 41000

To start debugging, open the following URL in Chrome:
devtools://devtools/bundled/inspector.html?ws=localhost:41000

Successfully synced application org.nativescript.HelloWorld on device 5918A21E-3828-4893-9EEC-05053567499F.

[NSDebugAdapter] Ready to attach to application on 41000

Debugging is stopped

Open the link in Google Chrome
devtools://devtools/bundled/inspector.html?ws=localhost:41000

Click "Reconnect DevTools" multiple times.
What I've noticed is that interval between reconnections is increased with the next reconnection.

Run the app with VS Code "Launch on IOS".
Debugging is working.

We couldn't reproduce the behavior on mac with Big Sur OS version.

I also have this issue on macOS Ventura. It is not possible to debug iOS using Nativescript VS Code Extension.

I created a new Angular Nativescript project using the nativescript command ns create, and then generated a new nativescript launch.json file in VS Code. Whether I attempt to attach the debugger to the already running app on my iOS simulator, or attempt to launch on iOS, the debugger does not attach.

Environment:

Nativescript VS Code Extension v0.12.3
macOS 13.1 (22C65)
Nativescript 8.4.0
VS Code 1.75.1 

The console logging:

[NSDebugAdapter] Ready to attach to application on 41000

[NSDebugAdapter] Using tns CLI on path 'tns'

Same problem as well. MacOS ventura debugging in vscode doesnt work at all

[meeshkabob]

VSCode debugging for iOS is still not functional in my environment. Both Launch on iOS and Attach on iOS conclude with output, [NSDebugAdapter] Ready to attach to application on 41000.

Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Environment:

Nativescript VS Code Extension v0.12.3
macOS Ventura 13.5.1
Nativescript 8.5.3
VS Code 1.81.1
Simulator: iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16.4

Open in browse debug link from console.
Click "Reconnect" button about ten times.
VS Code debug should work after that.
