Salesforcedx-vscode: Intellisense Apex/VS

[mmclaughlinre]

Hello,

I recently started using Visual Studio Salesforce Extension and I cannot seem to figure out why Apex Intellisense is not working. Can I have support on this issue?

Thanks!

Do you by chance have any Java extensions installed? There are a few Java extensions that conflict with Apex and will override the Apex extension. We recommend disabling all unused extensions for the workspace. See: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/extension-gallery#_disable-an-extension

Thank you for the quick response @ntotten - No other extensions enabled. any other suggestions?

Hi @mmclaughlinre. Is intellisense partially working or not at all? For SObjects, you need to run the command SFDX: Refresh SObject Definitions to have up-to-date autocompletion on your SObjects. If it's not working at all, it could be an issue with your Java home setting. In your vscode settings try setting the salesforcedx-vscode-apex.java.home key to your Java 8 runtime path. For example: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_131.jdk/Contents/Home

@brpowell Thank you so much! That did it!

Glad to hear that @mmclaughlinre! Was the issue refreshing the SObjects or setting the Java home path? We like to get feedback on these kinds of things to improve the experience of first time set up.

@brpowell The former!

Thanks for letting us know, we'll keep this in mind going forward.

Thanks, that worked for me too! Refreshing the SObjects. I did not know that needed to be done! It makes such a difference!
