I'm trying to create a Q# New Project in VS Code, but VS Code won't let me do that until I have my Q# language server downloaded.
I'm using a mac. And the Q# language server just kept downloading for hours.
How do I solve this problem?
The language server is what provides most of the functionality for VS Code, it is about 38Mb so it shouldn't take that long to download, maybe there is some flaky with your network?
As a workaround, you can try using the instructions from the "Other editors from the command line" in the setup instructions, that explains how to create a new Q# project directly from the command line, which then you can open in VS Code.

Currently I am trying to use Visual Studio Code with Ionide to build a F# Solution. To describe my problem, i first describe what i have done, and what works.
I created a solution with two Projects. One Project is a Queue that contains a F# library. Another project is Queue.Test that is a console application that uses the Queue library, and should contain the Tests for the Queue library.
I'm using .Net6 and created the solution and Project with the dotnet cli tool.
In general, i can build the project with dotnet and i also can use everything in Visual Studio Code. I load the Folder that contains both projects, and Visual Studio Code loads the library.
I am able to edit the Library and my Console application. In my Console application i also can access the Queue and so on. Autocompletion works, and so on.
But, there is one problem. When i add a new function to my library, let's say Queue.help then in my Console application, i cannot see that function. It doesn't show in autocomplete, and when I write code that uses that function i get a compiler error telling me that function doesn't exists.
I can Build/Rebuild from VS Code or from CLI but the problem goes not away.
The only way Ionide starts to see the new function is by building the library AND restarting VS Code. As long i don't restart, it seems to not update the generated dll (i guess).
This is sure annoying, as i don't want to reload/restart VSCode everytime I add a new function to my library.
So my question: How i can I fix this?
What i want is to be able to change my library, and at the same time write tests in the other project and get full Code autocompletion.
Does somebody else have the same problem, or should I change my workflow?
What can i do, to debug this problem on my own?
Some tips?
This issue is fixed by the recent version of Ionide 5.10.1
Okay, so I'm trying to code & upload to an Arduino with VS Code (Visual Studio Code). When I try to upload or verify my Arduino code, this error pops up:
If you cannot see that, it says:
[Starting] Verify sketch - ir_remote\ir_remote.ino [Warning] Output path is not specified. Unable to reuse previously compiled files. Verify could be slow. See README. Arduino: This application was configured to use a bundled Java Runtime Environment but the runtime is missing or corrupted. [Error] Exit with code=1
Help will be greatly appreciated. I started messing around with the Arduino a few weeks ago, and I've been using VS Code for a long time.
ALSO:
Code works completely fine on Arduino IDE, I want to be able to code and upload to an Arduino with VS Code.
I also tried posting this on the Arduino Forum, and no one replied.
I was able to solve the issue sharing here to help,
I installed Arduino from MS App Store, and i got exactly same error, i uninstalled the Arduino and downloaded installer from Arduino web site, i installed Arduino set the path by pointing to in VS Code settings > extensions > Arduino Configurations > Arduino Path, paste here path to installation folder. And it was all good.
Under project files .vscode folder be sure arduino.json has path set to
"output": "../ArduinoOutput",
Remember that you have to select Development board, Programmer and Serial Port as well in VS Code IDE.

I had the same problem and after following the very nice instructions of the author and what Jack said, I found this:
Add "output": "./build" (or wherever you want) to your ".vscode/arduino.json" file, just as Jack mentioned.
Delete ".vscode/c_cpp_properties.json" file. (If you don't do this, the intellisense won't work).
Build the project again (via verification or upload buttons).
Enjoy (And hope the bests for me in the case your problem is done following this routine!)
I'm following the instructions to build a "hello world" extension for Visual Studio as outlined here. I've got the Yeoman generator installed, but it seems buggy. For one thing, unless I immediately select one of the initial options when generating a new extension, I'm unable to select an option. Further, if I do immediately select an option (i.e. before enter stops working), I'm prompted to give a name to the extension. However, no matter how furiously I pound on my keyboard, no characters shows seem to be registered by the generator application.
Has anyone else experienced these issues with the generator? I'd really like to start experimenting with VS Code extensions, but if the generator doesn't work I'm not sure where to start.
This is an issue with yo in node 7.1.0. You have to upgrade or downgrade node.js.
I have downloaded and started the community version of SFSx2. I read everything on their documentation page:
http://docs2x.smartfoxserver.com/DevelopmentBasics/introduction
Which unfortunately only talks about flash client side code. Nothing about the corresponding server side code, nor about html5 client side which I need.
I downloaded the HTML5 examples, which took me a long time to find (they are here: http://www.smartfoxserver.com/download/get/140 )
None of the examples work, as they can't connect to the server. Presumably, this is because the examples only supply client side code. There are no instructions supplied on how to install or run the examples.
I can find no mention on the smartfox documenation on the following:
1) what language is used on the server side. One assumes its java.
2) how does one deploy java code to the smartfox server? I cant find any mention of this in the docs.
3) how does one find and install the server part of the client side examples (which are Tris, GameLobby, BuddyMessenger, AdvancedChat).
I applied to be allowed to post on the smartfoxserver forums, but no reply yet.
I also found it hard so I share what I've found out.
The server extensions are written in Java. I used Eclipse JUNO to write my code.
You can download Eclipse here. http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
You export the extension in jar format from eclipse into you extension path. The name of your file has to end in 'extension' eg MyFirstExtension.jar otherwise sfs2x wont recognize it. Your extension path will be something like this: C:\Program Files\SmartFoxServer2X\SFS2X\extensions\MyFirstExtension\MyFirstExtension.jar if your working in windows.
You will find docs on JAVA API here. http://docs2x.smartfoxserver.com/api-docs/javadoc/server/
This is a link to the basic example code: http://www.smartfoxserver.com/download/get/120
Unzip the content into the [SFS2X_install_folder]/SFS2X/www/root/examples folder, overwriting the existing file. Run the index.html file, then navigate to another index.html to open the example. Run the sfs2x-standalone.exe first of course(see below). If you followed the 'server configuration tutorial' on smartfox website and changed the server ports, the examples wont work. Leave the ports alone until you start to understand the server.
This is a link to the flash example code: http://www.smartfoxserver.com/download/get/108
You will find the example code for apps mentioned above. They are written in Adobe Flash Builder and Java extensions. I don't know if there is any code for HTML5 but the Java server code and AS3 is there.
I also found that using the standalone server was the way to go rather than using SFS2x as a service. c:\program files\smartfoxserver2x\sfs2x\sfs2x-standalone.exe. Using the exe gives you the command prompt window. You can use the window for debugging and see the state of the server when it starts.
Most of the examples should work without creating extensions but to create an extension out of source examples:
Create and setup a new project in your Java IDE. You will have already set up a workspace.
Copy the content of the /source/server/src folder to your project's source folder.
Add SFS2X Libraries. Go to properties of the project -> Select Java Build Path -> Click Library Tab -> Add external jar. Add 'sfs2x.jar' and 'sfs2x-core.jar' from C:\Program Files\SmartFoxServer2X\SFS2X\lib folder. To create the extension, export jar file to extension path. Restart server.
Another problem I had was the Java Version I was using. I had to use Java1.6 with my version of sfs2x when writing extensions. This was trial and error as there was no documentation. There may be a newer version out now.
I had to copy all the server source into eclipse to try and understand how things were done. It was a way of having all the code in one place. There was a lot of trial and error as getting help is hard. I eventually accomplished what I set out to achieve. Good Luck.
SmartFox Server is easy to use even with extension. documentation Give try to Nuggeta solution for game development too. No extension needed at first. This is optionnal.

I'm using Vim on a Mac for front-end development and was recently hired at the company that uses Team Foundation Server as their version control system.
I would hate to have to switch to using Visual Studio on Windows because I'm so used to Vim and the Mac.
I found this and was hoping that would be a possible solution. I would still like to avoid editing code in Eclipse. However I wouldn't mind opening Eclipse to do version control stuff.
I'm very unfamiliar with Eclipse and Team Foundation Server (not VCS in general) and I need some advice on how to actually use it.
I'm able to connect to the server and find the project I have to work on, but from here I'm lost. This is the window I'm stuck at.
Anyone who are in a similar situation and could offer some help?
You've done the hard bit I think, firstly you should be able to safely ignore the Work Item and Build "folders" unless someone explicity tells you to use work items, at which point they can show you what you need to know as it works exactly the same as in Visual Studio.
If you double click on the Source Control folder it will open a new window which will show you the source "tree". To be able to Get, Checkout and add source files to the tree you'll need to set up a workspace. Once you've done this then you can get the code and check out.
With Team Explorer Everywhere You also have the option of using the tf command line in the Mac terminal. This would eliminate the need for eclipse. (I'm assuming that as a Vim user you're not afraid to use the terminal)
Another option might be svnBridge however I think you need the server version if you're using a Mac, and this requires a site to be installed in the TFS application server which might not be an option.
Finally TFS now offers support for integration with GIT.
