A comment on Haxe 4.2. Parent comment

For 5 of the targets, debugging directly within the Haxe sources is supported with different VSCode debug adapters (well, JS just uses source maps). If your code is written in a target-agnostic way, you can even switch to a different target with better debugging support temporarily.

Other than that, if really you need to debug some target-specific issue on a target without debugging support, there's usually still the option of debugging the generated code.

oh, I see, thanks! Since I assume you're one of the devs, can you pinpoint also to a direct AST evaluator implementation? Either the obsolete --interp or the new "Eval" interpeter engine :)

The eval implementation is found here (evalMain.ml is the entry point):
