[Henrique Bucher via Phabricator via lldb-commits]

HenriqueBucher updated this revision to Diff 467310.
HenriqueBucher added a comment.

Visual Studio code has different folders for plugins when used by local users and users remoting into the box. 
The current instructions show how to install the lldb-vscode plugin only for the local users and it will be invisible to them if they remote. 
This patch adds instructions on how to install the plugin for remote users too. 
It solves issue #58252.

+It is important to note that the directory `~/.vscode/extensions` works for users logged in locally to the machine. If you are remoting into the box using Visual Studio Code's Remote plugins (SSH, WSL, Docker) it will look for extensions on `~/.vscode-server/extensions` only and you will not see your just installed lldb-vscode plug-in. If you want this plugin to be visible to remoting users, you will need to either repeat the process above for the `~/.vscode-server` folder or create a symbolic link from it to `~/.vscode/extensions`:

+$ cd ~/.vscode-server/extensions
+$ ln -s ~/.vscode/extensions/llvm-org.lldb-vscode-0.1.0  llvm-org.lldb-vscode-0.1.0
