[I use macOS]
I have an extension called Code Runner:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=formulahendry.code-runner
All I want to do is clear output everytime I execute some C++.So I found this command online:
"code-runner.clearPreviousOutput": true
But I am unable to fund where to enter it.I think its the package.json file,but I am unable to located.This is very trivial but its really annoying me!
It's a setting (settings.json), there's no need to change the extension's manifest.
Note that these days, VSCode opens the settings with a UI by default rather than raw JSON (which likely wasn't the case when Code Runner's readme was written).

I created a vscode extension for the first time..I used LSP(language server protocol) and having both client and server bundled as one extension.
The extension has highlighting and autocomplete features for a custom file type. I packaged it using vsce I got a VSIX file. I installed the extension in my vscode using the .vsix file.
The extension works when i am working on local files.
However, i connected to a remote VM using the ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh extension such that I can view the remote files in vscode, but here my created extension is not working. I can't even see the file type i created.
Any help is appreciated. Is there some specific setting I need to put in my package.json
For your extension to properly work remotely, either installed on host or on the remote, you have to follow a few guidelines, and yes, there are some settings that you may take care of on package.json.
The first and more complete source of information is Supporting Remote Development and GitHub Codespaces API documentation. It describes the architecture, settings, how to debug, common problems and so on. There is also the Extension Host page, where it describes the Preferred extension location topic, which tells you how to configure your extension to work on the correct location.
Based on your description (a LSP related extension) I understand your extension should be a Workspace Extension. This means that you should have this on your package.json:
"extensionKind": [
"workspace"
]
The Commons Problem section describes how you can evaluate and fix Incorrect execution location. To debug using SSH follow these instructions.
Also, remember that while working with remotes, you rely on local paths anymore. Instead you must always deal with Uri, whenever possible.
I guess after reviewing your settings, based on the docs related above, you should be able to detect what is happening on your extension and fix it. Give debug a try, it will be much easier to detect issues than installing the vsix and look for erros in Console.
Hope this helps
Similar questions have been asked, but what makes mine different is that I seem to have the configuration correct. Here is my configuration (my name has been redacted, for privacy reasons).
What I know is that my PhpStorm IDE has not been activated yet; is that required or is my configuration incorrect, despite the folder and file being at these places?
So you're trying to use PhpStorm from within VSCode to format your files. Which means: calling PhpStorm as a command-line app.
I'm pretty sure that PhpStorm has to have a valid active licence or be in the evaluation period (so it has be "activated" in some way). I remember seeing tickets with similar issue when using PhpStorm for code inspections in Continuous Integration tools.
In any case:
Check what command VSCode is trying to execute here, then open your OS console and try to run it there -- will you see any errors/warnings in the output?
If you do not see any such messages there then check the idea.log file -- the IDE will write everything there for sure.
On Windows it would normally be in the C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\JetBrains\PhpStorm2022.2\log folder (for the current 2022.2 version). Other OS / cusom location -- check https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/directories-used-by-the-ide-to-store-settings-caches-plugins-and-logs.html#logs-directory
...or is my configuration incorrect, despite the folder and file being at these places?
As per docs the Code Style settings file can be located anywhere: it can be in the default place as well as any other as it can be passed as an argument in the command line (-s parameter). So keeping the file with Code Style settings in the VSCode extension folder is OK as long as that parameter is used.
vscode keeps adding a file named .dccache. How can I prevent this?
It messes up the github diffs and I keep on having to add .dccache to the .gitignore for several different projects.
I can't find anything about why .dccache is being created in the first place
It can also be created by the Snyk extension.
I have the same file, I believe this is being created from DeepCode: https://www.deepcode.ai/
This is a code analysis tool to try to find issues. Check if you installed the DeepCode extension in VSCode if you want to get rid of this file, otherwise ignoring it should be fine.
The DeepCode plugins or the CLI is using this file to create a cache for the source code bundles send to the analysis engine. Without this cache, the collection and upload would be very time-consuming.
As it only serves as a caching mechanism, you can exclude it from git uploads and ignore it otherwise.
Snyk extention has a Help&Feedback tab, on the FAQ there is a 'Add custom .dcignore file to your workspace'.
Sometimes git ignore doesn't work for me
I used this file: https://github.com/DeepCodeAI/dcignore/blob/master/full.dcignore.js
just create .dcignore and copy all contents to that. I manually add .dccache and .dcignore just in case.
I had the same issue and when I disabled Snyk extension on VS code editor is disappeared, if you don't have Snyk installed and still have .dccache appearing every now and them, just keep an eye on the other extensions, disable each one at a time and see which one is creating the .dccache file
wondering if you could assist. Really challenging in determining a solution to this from my research.
Ive downloaded Visual Studio code two weeks ago and has come across an error once I try to debug a file. The file appears to open but once I run the debugger it shows accordingly:
'${workspaceFolder}' can not be resolved. Please open a folder.
Can't seem to find or replicate a similar solution. I've also tried to reinstall Visual Studio code (no easy feat). I'm trying to at least understand the problem and its source.
The file is a .js file that I've been working on, running a simple function. It is not meant to operate in tandem with a larger workspace/program.
In VScode go to file --> Add folder to workspace and select the folder where the program files are located.
If you are using the latest Visual Studio 1.44, make sure to upgrade to 1.44.2.
The issue microsoft/vscode issue 94725 has been resolved.
It featured the same error message:
After some investigation the problem is the following for the workspace configuration our debug extensions appends the following attribute
__workspaceFolder:'${workspaceFolder}'
And the configuration resolver properly tries to resolve this and complains because the scope of the folder is not specified.
In a multi root workspace scope has to be specified, otherwise the resolver does not know against which folder to resolve the variables.
Proposed fix: the node extension which adds this attribute should scope it if it sees that we are in a multi root folder.
So instead of ${workspaceFolder} use ${FOLDER_NAME:workspaceFolder}.
This is fixed in commit ae97613.
Replace ${workspaceFolder} with ${FOLDER_NAME:workspaceFolder} in your *.code-workspace file. (from [here][1])
By the way, same goes to ${workspaceRoot}, you can replace it with ${FOLDER_NAME:workspaceRoot}.
Any more folder variables ca be fixed with this FOLDER_NAME: prefix? My workspaces did not use them so far.
Worked for me in Version: 1.44.2.
I know this question is very old already and the answers may have been correct but none worked for me on vscode v1.57.1 at the time of this comment on 30.06.2021
I had to replace ${workspaceFolder} with ${workspaceFolder:my-folder-name} in my *.code-workspace file
Ref: Variables scoped per workspace folder
I recently had this problem and so did I read the answers above but being a beginner I was unable to solve it .In my answer I don't have exactly what you should do but I will show what worked for me.
Go to the explorer and you will see there is no folder added.
Browse for .vscode folder and select it.
Issue solved {this atleast worked for me.It**(.vscode)** had .json extension file in it}.
I was having the same issue, but I solved it this way:
1- open VS Code as administrator
2- open the sheet
3- debugging with no problem :)
enter image description here
I just create a file.json that they can debug.
I want to add some SVG icons to the default Ionicons set.
I'm following these steps to build them from the source without success:
Put my svg icon in src/: src/my-icon.svg
Edit my manifest file with a custom prefix "prefix": "my-",
Run, python ./builder/generate.py
ionicons.svg appear to be modified but it's not changed.
What am I doing wrong?
I would recommended you take a look at this excellent article by Omar Wazir, his instructions worked out great for me. In short, he tells you to install all the dependencies, get Ionicons, put your custom icon in the /src/ folder and to run python ./builder/generate.py after which he tells you to move some files to these folders:
ionicons\css -> <ionicApp>/www/lib/ionic/css/
ionicons\fonts -> <ionicApp>/www/lib/ionic/fonts/
ionicons\scss -> <ionicApp>/www/lib/ionic/scss/ionicons/
Also when you run the python ./builder/generate.py command, it should tell you that the script has found a new icon. Perhaps this information can help you solve your problem.
