Description
Description
I download IronPython 3.4 from here I'm using Visual Studio 2022 with python support.
I can see IronPython is correctly recognized in the Python environments window:

but debug fails to run with the following error:
The program 'ipy32.exe' has exited with code 4294967295 (0xffffffff).

Note: I also tried with the IronPython nuget packet, it still doesn't work.
Steps to Reproduce
- Download IronPython from here
- Add and configure python support on Visual Studio
- Try to debug the code, it doesn't work while IronPython 2.7 did.
Versions
IronPython 3.4.0 (3.4.0.1000)
[.NETCoreApp,Version=v6.0 on .NET 6.0.14 (64-bit)]

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure with IronPython 3.4.0, Visual Studio 2022 Python support, and the downloaded package or NuGet package. Check the reported ipy32.exe exit code and compare the configuration with the stated IronPython 2.7 behavior; done means identifying a confirmed cause or documenting the required debugging configuration.
