Vscode-ng-language-service: Version of Angular Language Service used?

[jtsom]

What determines the version of the Angular Language Service that is used? I have this extension installed on a couple systems (one each of Windows 10, Mac, and Ubuntu). All are running the latest VS Code Insiders, and 0.1.6 of the extension.

On the Linux and Mac, on startup, or project load, in the Output window it is displaying:

Angular Language Service: 4.3.6
TypeScript: 2.4.2

But on the Windows machine, it shows:

Angular Language Service: 5.0.0-beta.5
TypeScript: 2.4.2

The project on Windows has, in the project.json:
"@angular/language-service": "4.3.1",

and on the other two it's:
"@angular/language-service": "^4.3.6",

On the commit that fixed the issues with v0.1.4, it mentions updating to use the 5.0.0-beta.5 version, so I'm not sure what's going on?

If you have a version of the language service installed locally in your project it will use that version instead of the built in version.

I'll have to check but I'm sure the windows project has the language service locally installed, as I mentioned 4.3.1

ed: Yes, I just checked - the Windows project that says it's using 5.0.0-beta.5 does have the language service locally installed, at v. 4.3.1

[jtsom]

Odd. I pulled the same project down onto the Mac, npm installed, and that version is showing
Angular Language Service: 4.3.1

Removing node_modules and re-installing on windows still shows 5.0.0-beta.5

+1 here on Windows 8.1. It doesn't seem to detect the local version, even thought VSCode is opened to the folder that contains package.json and node_modules, and running npm ls @angular/language-service in the folder shows v4.3.6.

Any traction on this issue??? I've got a project that has @angular/language-service: 5.1.0, but in the output window it is showing 5.0.0-beta.5. I NEED the newer version (along with the newer Typescript) in order fix problems with intellisense (Seeing multiple, incorrect entries in the dropdown). HOW can I get this extension to use the newer version?

For me, adding "@angular/language-service": "~5.1.0" to my dev dependencies, installing, and restarting VSC fixed the problem. Running macOS.

Closing this, since original issue is more than 2 years old. The extension now prints version number of @angular/language-service to the console.
