How would you attach a DAP python debugger to a running instance of (i)Python? Is there some import debugpy; debugpy.start() command or similar?
I believe this is out of the scope of the DAP protocol, I believe even VSCode cannot do it based on my understanding.
If you want to debug a running session, just use ipdb or pdb.
No it isn't. DAP can definitely do this. It can even attach to a PID.
This is what I complained about it in my post: I could not get dape to work with this.
I see, thanks for correcting me.
I see that this post https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-python/issues/1078 suggested that debugpy can already attach to a local Python process.
