premake v6.0 DAP

[lolrobbe2]

@nickclark2016 @samsinsane is there a good place to start for v6.0 code changes wise?
while i am developing premake-manager i would like to start working on a [DAP] (https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol//) server
as it gives much wider integration for IDE's etc and it is standerdised..., this would also allow us to move away from mobdebug.

1. where in the folder structure i could put this?
2. are there plans for something similar?
3. the debug adapter would still rely on lua socket.

or should i directly try and develop it for premake5 and bring it over to 6.0?

[nickclark2016]

6.0 is still a ways out. Currently, all of the internal efforts are being focused on actually releasing a 5.0 that is not a beta. To answer the rest:

1. Preferably show a proof of concept as an extension, first.
2. No internal plans for this.
3. That works for me. There are no plans to remove luasocket support at present date.

the DAP would be a long way out to, just wondering if i should focus on getting it to work with 5.0 or 6.0?

[nickclark2016]

I would personally suggest a 5.0 target. 6.0 is nowhere near stable enough in API or underlying code to make any targets for it.

okay ill focus on 5.0, thanks for the advice/help :)
