Hermes Debugger not stopping on breakpoints

[lunaleaps]

Version

0.66.0-rc.2

Developer Environment

macOS, Intel,

Issue and Reproduction Steps

When attempting to set breakpoints in devtools they are not hitting but debugger statements do.

Steps to repro:

1. npx react-native init --version 0.66.0-rc.2 MyTestProject662 and start metro npm start
2. Follow hermes debugging steps (but click on the React Native experimental target)
   
3. Set a breakpoint via devtools in App.js and see if it hits

Expected:

• Should see debugger stop on line of breakpoint
  Actual:
• Doesn't

Note:

• Also reproduces on current release 0.65.1
• Happens on both Android and iOS

I made a quick investigation, but I don't know this part of the codebase. Sorry

https://github.com/facebook/react-native/tree/main/ReactCommon/hermes/inspector/chrome

- (BOOL)isRemoteDebuggingAvailable
{
  if (RCTTurboModuleEnabled()) {
    return NO;
  }
  Class jsDebuggingExecutorClass = objc_lookUpClass("RCTWebSocketExecutor");
  return (jsDebuggingExecutorClass != nil);
}

  public void setRemoteJSDebugEnabled(final boolean isRemoteJSDebugEnabled) {
    if (!mIsDevSupportEnabled) {
      return;
    }


    UiThreadUtil.runOnUiThread(
        new Runnable() {
          @Override
          public void run() {
            mDevSettings.setRemoteJSDebugEnabled(isRemoteJSDebugEnabled);
            handleReloadJS();
          }
        });
  }

@fabriziobertoglio1987 that code is for the old "Chrome debugging flow", not for Flipper debugger for Hermes

[numandev1]

@fkgozali can we add Hermes debugging in devsetting cmd+D instead of React Native Experiment inspect?

Closing off since we are deprecating the repo - if the problem persists please open an issue either in react-native core, or the hermes repo.
