Omnisharp-roslyn: VSCode intellisense not working for c# dotnet core project

[manishkp]

Hi Team,
I am not sure what am I missing.
I have windows 10 machine with VS code vscode veriosn: 1.12.1 installed.
I have the 'ms-vscode.csharp' extension installed on and the intellisense didnt work.

Then I have the dev branch built locally and I am pointing to
"omnisharp.path": "C:\Users\manis\Source\Repos\omnisharp-roslyn\artifacts\publish\OmniSharp\default\netcoreapp1.1\Omnisharp.exe"
or
"omnisharp.path": "C:\Users\manis\Source\Repos\omnisharp-roslyn\artifacts\publish\OmniSharp\default\netcoreapp1.1"

in my user settings json file.

Its still not working, I tried looking at the dev toolbar for any errors but couldnt find anything relevent.
Can you guys help?

thanks
Manish

@manishkp: Sorry that I didn't spot this issue immediately. This repo is for the OmniSharp server itself rather than C# for VS Code (which is https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-vscode).

Could you provide your OmniSharp Log to help us see what's happening? After opening your project and a C# file in VS Code, select View->Output from the menu and select "OmniSharp Log" from the combobox at the top-right of the Output pane.

Thanks @DustinCampbell for replying.
I dont see "Omnisharp Log" option in outputs.
Also I dont see any projects detected option as mentioned in https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/csharp

I am assuming Omnisharp is not getting loaded.

To make sure nothing else was messing up, I uninstalled the vscode and my user settings and extension by deleting
C:\Users\manis\AppData\Roaming\Code
C:\Users\manis.vscode\extensions

Then reinstalled vscode, just added 2 extensions (these are the folders in C:\Users\manis.vscode\extensions)
ms-vscode.csharp-1.10.0
msjsdiag.debugger-for-chrome-3.1.2

Shall I clone the issue into the new repo ?

Thanks
Manish

If the OmniSharp Log isn't there, the C# for VS Code extension isn't actually launching.

Is there a particular reason that you're setting the "omnisharp.path"? C# for VS Code should download a build of OmniSharp itself upon launching (it'll launch if you open a C# file).

With the re-install of vscode and user settings cleanup, I am not setting any overrides now.
so now I see the default omnisharp.path = null in C:\Users\manis\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\settings.json and I dont have any user settings or workspace settings

Hmmm... try the following:

1. Open VS Code and select Help->Toggle Developer Tools.
2. In the Developer Tools, select the "Console" tab.
3. Open your project in VS Code and open a C# file.

Do you see any errors or other information in the Developer Tools?

Thanks Dustin,
The console output seems to suggest that its related to https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/20168
--- log---
Workbench did not finish loading in 10 seconds, that might be a problem that should be reported.

I have replied to that issue.

Thanks

Yes, that does look a VS Code-specific issue. It doesn't seem like C# for VS Code is getting loaded at all. I'll go ahead and close this issue. I've also subscribed to the VS Code issue above. If you don't get any traction, you might consider filing a new issue at https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues as that one appears to be closed.
