No-config debugging

[jimisola]

Your colleagues over at vscode-python-debugger have implemented no-config debugging microsoft/vscode-python-debugger#561

Would be very useful if it was implemented for Java as well.

Yes. It's an everyday (latest today) to set up debugging properly with launch.json etc. For Python it simply just works now.

Would be a huge time saver and also make it a lot more user friendly.

Can something be done to for this issue to can more attention? This functionality is so conventient when coding in Python.

Consider this as a joint effort with Red Hat

Hi @jimisola now we shipped the Debugger for Java 0.58.3 as stable release, which already support no config debug.
You may have a try with the latest stable version.

You can access this wiki for more details!

Very nice. Thanks! Before I try it out, will this only work if started with java or will it also work if one starts with Maven/Gradle (most of us, including myself, probably do the latter)?
