Description

Looks like the show logical structure setting is no longer working on remote debugging sessions. I am unable to see content of hashmaps and/or collections.

Probably caused by the same issue, conditional breakpoints don't work. I get a error card with error: 'Project MyApplication cannot be found.' I definitely don't have a project named 'MyApplication'.

Environment
  • Operating System: ubuntu 22.04.2
  • JDK version: 1.8
  • Visual Studio Code version: 1.78
  • Java extension version: 0.25.11
  • Java Debugger extension version: 0.50.0
Steps To Reproduce
  1. attached to running wildfly server
  2. create some breakpoint, try and inspect hashmaps and/or collections.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by attaching to a running WildFly server, setting a breakpoint, and inspecting hashmaps or collections during a remote debugging session. Also check a conditional breakpoint and its “Project MyApplication cannot be found” error. Done means logical structure displays collection contents and conditional breakpoints work without that error.
