Launching a projectless debug in CCS v20.0.2 does not work if no workspace has been opened yet

    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: Medium
    • Code Composer Studio Theia

    • CCS_20.0.2
    • CCS_20.3.0
    • None

      If the user launches CCS and immediately tries to open a projectless debug by launching a target configuration, they will get a generic "Debug Model Undefined!" error. I hit this immediately after downloading CCS and trying to debug an already built example. I was eventually able to figure out the issue was that no workspace was open yet, so Theia wasn't able to create a launch.json file to auto-populate. 

      It'd be nice if CCS prompted you to open / create a workspace when trying to launch a target config without having a workspace open. Alternatively, I think a more descriptive error should be given so it's clear to the user why their debugging session won't start.
