Threads only shows call stack for one thread

[williammacke]

Hey I've been using nvim-dap-view and I really love the UI. However, when I pause my program in the threads view it only shows the current stack for one of the threads and just lists the rest of the threads names. Is there a way I can open these other threads and view their call stacks? Thanks so much!

Hello,

Thanks!

I've encountered this situation before! This happens because the thread does not contain any frames. In turn, that happens because the thread is not stopped, so we can't "accurately" report its state (which is updated by nvim-dap with the "Stopped" event).

A workaround would be fetching the state for these other threads manually, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea, considering the accuracy matter. I can spin up a branch with this change if you wanna give it a shot.

A more appropriate workaround would be "literally" stopping more threads, which you can achieve, on your own config, with auto_continue_if_many_stopped (see :h dap.defaults). Let me know if this does not cover your use case.

Thanks so much!

You're welcome!

Thanks so much! I'll take a look at the settings you mentioned and see if that solves my issues. Again thanks so much for your help!
