How do I map the Run Configuration from IntelliJ to VSCode?

Question

I want to have the same run configuration I have on Intellij the same as I do for VS Code. But I am not sure how to go about doing that. I tried the launch.json on VSCode but I am not sure what fields I have to put to make it work.

Anyone with experience with this?

Here is what I am referencing:

Essentially when I click the Run Button on the top right of the intellij it runs that particular run configuration picture.

Is there a way for me to do the same on VSCode?

Answer 1

1. If .vscode/launch.json doesn't exist in your workspace, you could click the link "create a launch.json file" and Java Debugger will create a initial launch.json file with some base configuration for your Java application.

   

2. Type a "" in launch.json, VS Code will provide a list of completion suggestions on the supported configs. If you want to add environment variables for your program, you can type "env": { "key": "value"}.

   

Answer 2

There is this project which lets you convert Jetbrains run configurations to VSCode
