Can I run VScode on chromebook? - visual-studio-code

I'm using Chromebook(asusu c101pa).
How I get VScode without [Community builds of
Visual Studio Code]1?
I've to try community builds of vscode, couldn't run. And, I'd like to use on linux.
I've downloaded deb file of vs code. But couldn't work. Error code sys
An error occurred during installation of your Linux aaplication
So, I do install Linux command(terminal), that too.
myname#penguin:~$ sudo dpkg -i code_1.29.1-1542309157_amd64.deb
dpkg:error processing archive code_1.29.1-1542309157_amd64.deb
(--install):
package architecture (amd64) does not match system (arm64)
rrors were encountered while processing:
code_1.29.1-1542309157_amd64.deb
code_1.29.1-1542309157_amd64.deb is vscode file.
How I fix this problem?

libxkbcommon.so.0: no version information available after installing VSCode update

I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. After updating VSCode to v.1.53.0 I am getting following message on opening VSCode:
/usr/share/code/bin/../code: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxkbcommon.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/share/code/bin/../code)
On giving command code --verbose I get following logs: logs
I cannot update current Ubuntu version due to limited admin rights.
If you run code --verbose you will see real problem:
[main 2021-04-16T11:44:45.671Z] Main->SharedProcess#connect
/usr/share/code/code --verbose --no-sandbox: relocation error: /usr/share/code/resources/app/node_modules.asar.unpacked/spdlog/build/Release/spdlog.node: symbol _ZNKSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEE7compareEPKc, version GLIBCXX_3.4.21 not defined in file libstdc++.so.6 with link time reference
It can't find symbol basic_string::compare
echo _ZNKSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEE7compareEPKc | demangle
So to run visual studio code on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
You just need to copy libstdc++.so.6.0.28 and libstdc++.so.6
to /usr/share/code from ubuntu 20.04 LTS
You can get libstdc++.so.6.0.28 (md5=0e7d34a60136c0cd150917ed099980f2) for example from this deb file
Here simple script to do it for you
#!/bin/sh
wget https://mirrors.wikimedia.org/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gcc-10/libstdc%2B%2B6_10.2.0-5ubuntu1~20.04_amd64.deb
dpkg-deb -R libstdc++6_10.2.0-5ubuntu1~20.04_amd64.deb .
sudo cp -P usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/* /usr/share/code/
file version changed in wikimedia.org so new script:
#!/bin/sh
wget https://mirrors.wikimedia.org/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gcc-10/libstdc%2B%2B6_10.3.0-1ubuntu1~20.04_amd64.deb --no-check-certificate
dpkg-deb -R libstdc++6_10.3.0-1ubuntu1~20.04_amd64.deb .
sudo cp -P usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/* /usr/share/code/
md5sum of new libstdc++.so.6.0.28 604ec2999aeb3aadd0e96103fd4b5e5d
Then just type code
ps: very good font for vscode JetBrains Mono
I downgraded my VSCode to lower version. Apparently you can access previous versions of VSCode from it's website but the link's font was too big form me to see.
Still if someone does come across any other alternative please share.
Leaving this here for others.

Python venv is giving errno 2 in visual studio code

I tried to make a virtual environment as stated in the documentation of the visual studio code. I have already installed python 3.7.3 and anaconda on the system.
I did the following and I'm using vs code version 1.34 and windows 10:
I made an empty folder and used this line of code as stated in official documentation:
py -3 -m venv .venv
I expected a folder named .venv that has scripts folder with 'activate' file in it. As i have tested this method which worked on other systems with the same configuration, But instead i get the below error message:
Error: [Errno 2]: no such file or directory : 'C:\\ProgramData\\Anaconda3\\lib\\venv\\scripts\\nt\\python.exe'
It look like installer is broken, or so...
Copy from Python 3 installation folder:
C:\Users{user}\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37
Files: python.exe, python.pdb, python_d.exe, python_d.pdb, pythonw.exe & pythonw.pdb to folder: C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\venv\scripts\nt\
That's because, in the python version you are trying create virtual environment venv [ in other cases -> vitualenv] has not been installed.
environment building process fails after python global version hand over to the specific version.
you can get idea how to install vitualenv on a specific version from the link below.

vscode assistance with building cpptools needed

Ubuntu 18.04 ARM64
I have download and built vscode and this appears to be working.
I can see the extension market place and install extensions. The C/C++ IntelliSense, debugging, and code browsing install but gets a dependency install failure sometimes:
Updating C/C++ dependencies...
Downloading package 'Mono Framework Assemblies' (5368 KB) Done!
Installing package 'Mono Framework Assemblies'
Failed at stage: installPackages
Error: end of central directory record signature not found
It seems to succeed on the second attempt but I'm not convinced.
So I have cloned vscode-cpptools and would like to built it myself but I'm not sure what dependencies it has or how to build it correctly.
Any tips appreciated!
So following the build and debug guide at:
$ git clone -b release https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-cpptools
$ cd vscode-cpptools/Extension
$ npm install ! should install all dependencies but it forgets gulp
$ npm install gulp ! Manually install. I wonder what else it forgets
$ vsce package ! Should trigger the build and make the vsix package.
So the package is created and when I try and install it via the vscode extensions I get
Unable to start the C/C++ language server. IntelliSense features will be disabled. Error: Missing binary at ~/.vscode-oss-dev/extensions/ms-vscode.cpptools-0.22.1/bin/Microsoft.VSCode.CPP.Extension.linux.
Me thinks there are a lot of other dependencies that are missing!!!
Looking in the Extension bin folder and two important binaries are missing:
Microsoft.VSCode.CPP.Extension.linux
Microsoft.VSCode.CPP.IntelliSense.Msvc.linux
I also tried this on Intel Ubuntu 18.04 and while the Intel build appeared to do a whole lot more it also fails to build the binaries.
Found the answer in here : github.com/Microsoft/vscode-cpptools/issues/429 which indicates there is no support for Aaarch64 Arm64 at this point in time.

Buildbot installation requires msvc14

I've been trying the BuildBot First Run tutorial. It starts by creating a master and looks quite simple and straightforward, but I've encountered problems with the step pip install 'buildbot[bundle]'.
I get this error message (this is the end of the log):
building 'twisted.test.raiser' extension
error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required. Get it with "Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/
----------------------------------------

I've tried installing mscv build tools, but still get the same message.
Any ideas how I could fix the problem?
Problem is twisted does not yet support python 3.7 (see related issue here: Installing Twisted for Python using pip: error: Microsoft Visual Studio failed with exit status 2).
You can work around this problem by installing precompiled twisted binaries. For example from here: https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#twisted
E.g. in your case download Twisted‑18.9.0‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl and do
pip install Twisted‑18.9.0‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl
Then retry the buildbot install.
pip install 'buildbot[bundle]'

Command line tools not accessible from Eclipse on OSX

I am using Eclipse on a macOS machine. CMake is present on my machine at /usr/local/bin/cmake and has been installed using Homebrew. Eclipse is at the latest version (2018-09).
I have the following target in a Makefile, which has been set up and is visible from Eclipse:
all:
./configure
Rscript -e "Rcpp::compileAttributes()"
R CMD INSTALL --no-multiarch --with-keep.source .
Inside the configure file, there is this code:
cd src/build;cmake ..
However, when I double click the all target in Eclipse, I get the following message:
make all
./configure
./configure: line 1: cmake: command not found
make: *** [all] Error 127
I remember that some time ago this target worked out of the box on macOS. I can also launch CMake from a terminal without any trouble.
echo $PATH shows different behaviour:
If called from a standard macOS terminal, it yields /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/TeX/texbin:/opt/X11/bin
If called from a TM Terminal inside Eclipse, it yields /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
What is the most canonical way to have Eclipse detect my CMake installation ?
For macOS High Sierra 10.13.6, the solution provided here works. This must be performed to see the changes immediately.
