Debugging Zig (with a debugger)

if you’re wondering why debug info with the custom backends doesn’t work; it’s 2 things, it uses DWARF 5 format which majority of debuggers have yet to update to. It also has zig specific extensions to make debug info for incremental builds much easier to manage. Even with dwarf 5, zig isn’t officially supported, though it is in the draft for dwarf 6. So debuggers won’t necessarily support zig. Only the zig lldb fork supports zig afaik, there are some wip debuggers in zig that will likely sup…

So basically when you use llvm backend the resulting debug info is an older version that is understood by more tools.
