The principle with Dear ImGui Bundle is the same, just use the dedicated Dear ImGui Bundle project template, and use imgui_bundle_add_app

Debug native C++ in python scripts
ImGui Bundle provides tooling to help you debug the C++ side, when you encounter a bug that is difficult to diagnose from Python.
It can be used in two steps:
-
Edit the file
pybind_native_debug/pybind_native_debug.py. Change its content so that it runs the python code you would like to debug. Make sure it works when you run it as a python script. -
Now, debug the C++ project
pybind_native_debugwhich is defined in the directorypybind_native_debug/. This will run your python code from C++, and you can debug the C++ side (place breakpoints, watch variables, etc).
