Break Points Not Working in TypeScript, Only in Generated JavaScript
Jun 12, 2020 12:39 PM|CincySteve|LINK
I am playing with a Blazor Wasm app that contains TypeScript. When I try to set a break point in the TypeScript code, it doesn't work. But when I set it in the JavaScript code that the TypeScript compiler creates, it does. I am running VS Community 2019 v 16.6.1 with Asp.Net Core 3.2.0 on Windows 10 . I gather there are problems with a number of Blazor Wasm debugging capabilities with Visual Studio. So I just wanted to report this one.
Thanks. Steve

did you generate the required .map files for debugging when you compile the typescript?
note: I never use typescript just es2020 via babel, so I don't know if you need inline or not.

Thanks, Bruce. Yes, I have the .map files. For those who use Visual Studio, .map files are generated when '"sourceMap": true' is in the compilerOptions in the tsconfig.json file.
