使用.natvis文件以VS Code形式显示C ++对象

Question

根据this link ，. natvis文件可用于可视化本机对象。具体来说，我希望能够使用Eigen::Matrix检查this .natvis file对象。

但是，上面的链接不包含有关如何在VS Code中实际使用.natvis文件的任何信息。是否可以使用自定义的.natvis文件？

这是我的launch.json文件供参考：

                }
            ],
            "preLaunchTask": "g++-8 build active file",
            "miDebuggerPath": "/usr/bin/gdb"
        }
    ]
}

launch.json文件具有visualizerFile选项：

    {
        "name": "g++-8 build and debug active file",
        "visualizerFile": "${workspaceFolder}/path/to/file.natvis",
        "showDisplayString": true,
        ...
    },

这里有更多文档（请参阅visualizerFile和showDisplayString表条目）：https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/launch-vs-schema-reference-cpp?view=vs-2019#c-linux-properties
