Make Cursor Work with cppvsdbg

cursor.md

1. Modify cpptools/package.json

Remove this condition "when": "workspacePlatform == windows"

%USERPROFILE%\.cursor\extensions\ms-vscode.cpptools-1.23.5-win32-x64\package.json

    "type": "cppvsdbg",
    "label": "C++ (Windows)",
    "when1": "workspacePlatform == windows",

2. Bypass the signature verification of vsdbg.dll

Keyword signature

%USERPROFILE%\.cursor\extensions\ms-vscode.cpptools-1.23.5-win32-x64\debugAdapters\vsdbg\bin\vsdbg.dll

  body = sub_18008D374(Delimiter, "body");
  *(_OWORD *)signature = 0i64;
  si128 = _mm_load_si128((const __m128i *)&xmmword_1800D7CF0);
  LOBYTE(signature[0]) = 0;
  sub_18003A624(body, "signature", signature);
  v7 = signature;
  if ( si128.m128i_i64[1] > 0xFui64 )
    v7 = (void **)signature[0];
  if ( sub_1800B08EC(v6, v7) )      // <----- check signature, force String + 0x154 = 4
  {
    if ( *((_DWORD *)String + 0x154) != 4 )
      *((_DWORD *)String + 0x154) = 4;
  }
  else
  {
    *((_DWORD *)String + 0x154) = 5;
  }

Now, simply use a hex editor to modify 74 15 to 74 00 at 18006C0F5

@REMvisual probably not as this is more of a workaround. You can disable extension's auto update from cursor.

Cool! It works!

thanks, i replaced it by searching word GT$ for version 1.23.1

The latest version ms-vscode.cpptools-1.27.7-win32-x64(vsdbg.dll), file offset 0x6B4F6 15 -> 00

But intellisense is still not working
