 Use the **Run > Start Debugging** menu item to run an executable and start debugging. If you have multiple launch configurations you can choose which launch configuration to use in the debugger view.
 
+LLDB DAP is only available starting in Swift 6.0. On older versions of Swift the [CodeLLDB](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=vadimcn.vscode-lldb) extension will be used for debugging instead. You will be prompted to install the CodeLLDB extension in this case.

 CodeLLDB includes a version of `lldb` that it uses by default for debugging, but this version of `lldb` doesn’t support Swift. The Swift extension will automatically identify the required version and offer to update the CodeLLDB configuration as necessary so that debugging is supported.
