This is the error I get through the terminal, I wonder if vs code and ros are not integrated vs code because I installed it through windows
To work properly with VSCode you need to install the ROS VSCode extension. The wiki also currently has an entry for VSCode support.
In tutorial requirement is install vscode in windows and install Remote Development extension pack. Why not just install in wsl?
I've install vscode to wsl. When I run code in wsl I get message:
To use Visual Studio Code with the Windows Subsystem for Linux, please install Visual Studio Code in Windows and uninstall the Linux version in WSL. You can then use the `code` command in a WSL terminal just as you would in a normal command prompt.
Do you want to continue anyway? [y/N]
To no longer see this prompt, start Visual Studio Code with the environment variable DONT_PROMPT_WSL_INSTALL defined.
Which cons of run vscode in wsl as opposed to run it in Windows?
The WSL extension splits VS Code into a “client-server” architecture, with the client (the user interface) running on your Windows machine and the server (your code, Git, plugins, etc) running "remotely" in your WSL distribution.
When VS Code is started in WSL, no shell startup scripts are run.
The extension runs commands and other extensions directly in WSL so you can edit files located in WSL or the mounted Windows filesystem (for example /mnt/c) without worrying about pathing issues, binary compatibility, or other cross-OS challenges.

This is the architectural choice of Windows and - personally speaking - I feel like it's a choice to avoid conflicts and redundancies.
When running the WSL extension, selecting the 'Extensions' tab will display a list of extensions split between your local machine and your WSL distribution.
Installing a local extension, like a theme, only needs to be installed once.
Some extensions, like the Python extension or anything that handles things like linting or debugging, must be installed separately on each WSL distribution. VS Code will display a warning icon ⚠, along with a green "Install in WSL" button, if you have an extension locally installed that is not installed on your WSL distribution.
I have installed GCC/MinGW on MacBook M1 using Homebrew. However,on opening VSCode and running C files, I have to go an extra step and select the debugger I want. Is there any way to make GCC default on VSCode?
Recently I updated my Windows 10 Pro with May Update (version 1903, build 18362.116). Then for my existing distros: OpenSuse Leap 15 and Ubuntu (installed from MS Store), I wanted to open a linux directory by using Explorer and I'm getting this message:
[susedis#mypc ~]$ explorer.exe .
If 'explorer.exe' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this:
cnf explorer.exe
This problem happens also with VSC (code) and VSC-Insiders (code-insiders).
I've read this article and ...
OPTION 1: my current problem
OPTION 2: icon LINUX does not exist in tree view
OPTION 3: it works
Supposedly options 1 and 2 should exist and work, even more with the latest update. What's wrong? Thanks in advance.
PS1: I've found these articles Run Visual Studio Code for Linux from WSL and Using Visual Studio Code with Windows Subsystem for Linux, they talk about installing xserver and more stuff on side linux. But many other articles and videos don't talk about it, it's like it was a built-in feature of Windows. This is so dark.
I just found what is the root of my problem: the distro.
explorer, code, code-insiders commands ONLY work through UBUNTU and I was using OpenSuse.
This warning is lacking in every article on Web I read, including on VSC site (example: Developing in WSL). This is a disadvantage for other distros. Very bad.
PS1: The solution can be found here.
I downloaded Rubymine 6.3.3 and I have Windows 8. When I open the terminal only the version and copyright appears without the path and I am unable to type anything. I checked the settings and the plugin is enabled and the terminal options seem to set correctly
any help would be really appreciated
