Description

I used to use IntelliJ IDEA to debug my Weblogic apps (all running on a single debug port on single server), but now I've switched to VS Code for various reasons.

I'm noticing that I can't debug multiple applications at the same time as I used to with IntelliJ.
If I try to open multiple VSC windows, one for each application, I'm only able to connect one debugger at a time.
If I add all the projects to a single VSC workspace, and I connect the debugger, it seems to pick the first project that was added to the workspace to debug. It will ignore breakpoints from other applications.
Any advice is appreciated.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Reproduce the single-debug-port WebLogic setup in VS Code and investigate the debugger behavior; done means multiple applications can be debugged concurrently without ignoring breakpoints from other applications.
