Do you mean that you want to be able to debug both Lua and C++ code,
or do you mean you want to be able to debug Lua code where the control
is switched between Lua and C++ code? I'm not sure if there are any
IDEs that can do the former, but almost any debugger that is based on
debug hooks should be able to do the latter.

I've been using my debugger (https://github.com/pkulchenko/MobDebug)
with Lua applications and also with engines written in C++ (love2d,
moai) without problems (the debugging is limited to Lua code).
