dlv-dap requires newest Delve :-( which just stopped official support of 1.14 or older.

I recommend updating go to a newer version (1.17 is the latest release and Go project itself stopped supporting 1.15 or older already).

But if it's not an option, use the legacy adapter. Add the following in your settings.json to use the legacy debug adapter

    "go.delveConfig": {
          "debugAdapter": "legacy"
   }

    "go.delveConfig": {
          "debugAdapter": "legacy"
   }

@hyangah I don't think legacy adapter would help here. It does use a stable dlv binary, which is a little older than the pulled-from-master dlv-dap binary, but it is still at 1.7+ and doesn't support Go 1.14.

A better way would be to follow the advice in the error message and call dlv with --check-go-version=false. This can be accomplished by addingng the following attribute to launch.json configuration: "dlvFlags": ["--check-go-version=false"]

@luojiego And as mentioned earlier, the best thing to do is to update the tools involved to more recent versions.

  • dlv version of 1.7.1 is the right one. Usually the extension will prompt you when dlv and dlv-dap need updating.
  • go version of go1.14.13 is too old. You want 1.15, 1.16 or 1.17 (latest stable release). You can download and install a newer version from https://golang.org/dl/

If you really don't want to update your Go version, then you can downgrade your dlv version to 1.6, but I don't see why you would want to go all the way back to 1.2.0 or 1.3.2 versions of dlv from 2019. Those are very old. Each version of dlv usually supports 3 versions of go - recent stable and 2 older versions. If you try using a version of Go that is older or newer than those 3 expected versions, you get the error above. You can suppress them and debugging would in general work, but some things might be off. You can observe the pattern from dlv release changelog:

  • 1.7.0: Add Go 1.17, drop Go 1.14
  • 1.6.0-1: Add Go 1.16, drop Go 1.13
    ...
  • 1.3.0: Add Go 1.13
  • 1.2.0: Add Go 1.12

There is a project that uses go-micro v1 api , It cannot be compiled on a version higher than 1.15. I'm already working on replacing go-micro. Thanks for your advice, I installed dlv 1.6.0 and it works.

@polinasok "If using the latest version of delve is not an option", falling back to legacy is the easiest option.
Disabling the version check from the extension side is an option as long as delve keeps supporting the old runtime/compiler. Not sure if that's a safe assumption we can make yet.

@luojiego Delve DAP reached to its usable state with dlv 1.6.1, so dlv 1.6.1 is preferred if you want to utilize DAP.

@hyangah Won't legacy still try to use the latest stable version of dlv (1.7.1)?

That assumption cannot be made because once dlv drops support for a version, they disable the tests with that version and won't know if something breaks as things are tweaked to keep up with new changes in the compiler (e.g. how line numbers are assigned to instructions). The bigger the difference between the version used and the latest stable version, the higher the chances that something might not be off.

Thank you! I installed dlv 1.6.1, debug is OK.

If user installs an old version of dlv manually, it should work.
Installing an old version of dlv-dap manually and staying with dlv-dap mode is an option too. But I thought choosing the right version of dlv and arranging the configuration or the binary installation (i.e. rename dlv to dlv-dap) is rather complex :-P.
It seems like @luojiego could use v1.6.1 that has enough dap support, and could figure out the right installation steps.

That's a good sign. :-)

@hyangah Thanks for the clarification. Yes, installing older dlv version manually is easier because it requires no renaming, symlinks or alternateTools magic.
