Hello!

Sorry for the newby question, but how do you initialize a hxcpp project on rpi?

So far I did :  
-\>install haxe 4.2.5, hxcpp and hxcpp-debug-server on the raspberry  
-\>install vscode and associated extensions  
-\>use the vscode command \>Haxe : initialize project  
-\>modify task.json to get the compilation command line

> Haxe -p src -cpp cpp -D rpi -L hxcpp-debug-server -main Main --debug

modify launch.json for HXCPP adding

> “preLaunchTask”: “hxcpp debug” (the command line above)  
> “program”: “${workspaceFolder}/cpp/Main-debug”

when I hit the debug button the compilation went well but I got no trace, and the debug console shows

> Debug server connected!  
> Socket error : write EPIPE

if I launch the Main-debug exe through the terminal, the trace appears.

What did I do wrong?

Just tried to compile HXCPP from git and it now works well.  
the one installed from haxelib doesn’t seem to be fully compatible with the debuguer.
