visual-studio-code | 🧛🏻‍♂️ Dark theme for Visual Studio Code | Theme library

I checked this question and many other posts to help me resolve my issue, but nothing worked.

I trying to open an existing Java Project from Eclipse in vscode. The project was opened successfully in Eclipse 2021-06 and I fixed the referenced libraries by selecting the JAR libraries under lib/ folder and right-click - configure build batch - add select add to build path. Then the file .classpath was updated automatically. Then I had to download JDK 11 (needed for vscode) and JDK 1.8 needed for the Java project. I managed to work with eclipse to set the JDK correctly and all worked fine. I was able to compile the project, export the result JAR and deploy and all worked well.

I am having trouble to open this project in vscode using Open Java Project option. I am facing issues adding referenced libraries this Java project as it is a managed project (since it was created in Eclipse). When I try to add the libraries using vscode UI, I am getting mixed results and sometimes it is not working and the build fails. I was surprised as in some instances, things just work, and then they don't.

I tried to update .classpath file in vscode and still same issues. When I try to add the libraries from Referenced Libraries (Read Only) under JAVA PROJECTS tree in vscode by clicking +, it has no effect. This step will modify the file settings.json under .vscode folder by adding the relevant values to the property "java.project.referencedLibraries".

I am confused about how to configure the referenced libraries for Java projects in vscode. Following is a summary of questions:

1. How to add a library using a relative path to a Java Project based on the project root folder?
2. What is the difference between adding a library using the .classpath file and by modifying settings.json file? Which one will win?
3. How to add a folder with all JAR files to be as the referenced library to the Java Project? This is to avoid adding one file at a time.
4. Why the .classpath and .project files are not showing in vscode explorer view? It will only show when you open the file in vscode from the Windows File Explorer.
5. I found command Configure Classpath but it is read-only, which I think it is the same as the .classpath file. Is there a way to change it from vscode UI?
6. When I remove .classpath file or when I removed the classpathentry lines from the .classpath file, the node 'Referenced Libraries (Read Only)' under JAVA PROJECTS in vscode view was removed. Why?

See the snapshots below for more details.

I appreciate your help.

So for some reason my intellisense is not working.

I tried the solutions suggested here Visual Studio Code: Intellisense not working.

The solution that seems to help most people is adding "python.autoComplete.extraPaths": [ "${workspaceFolder}/customModule" ], didn't work. Also VS Code says it doesn't recognize python.pythonPath when I add it.

Auto-complete not working, screen capture didn't capture my cursor, but it's right after argparse., which should give the option to auto-complete with a list that includes: ArgumentParser:

Remote server installed extensions:

Settings.json This is settings.json on remote server

I am trying to debug one specific unit test in VSCode with breakpoints.

On the command line, this works perfectly to execute:

I am trying to make pretty printing to work on Ubuntu 18.04 from visual studio code 1.64.2.

I tried to follow instructions initially from here and then the answer by Devymex as detailed in here.

Then further digging up revealed that the gdb pretty printing itself is not working as I tried to build, make, and run my code outside of VSCode. I had gcc 7.5 preinstalled on Ubuntu 18.04 and then I installed 11.2. But nothing worked.

The code I am trying to run

EDIT

It seems that my first error I describe is very easy to reproduce. Actually, Google Run fails to run any GRPC query on a .NET5 GRPC server it seems (at least, it did work before but as of today, February 21st, it seems that something changed). To reproduce:

1. Create a .NET5 GRPC server (also fails with .NET6):

I used to position my terminal at the left side of my visual studio code (as presented on the first image) but now the option to do that is gone, i think some recently update removed it (which seems strange, why would they remove a feature?).

After some googling, i found this How do I move the panel in Visual Studio Code to the right side? But it doest help me, as my problem is different

Someone knows how i can achieve the same result nowadays?

What i already tried:

1. Tried to add this command at settings.json "workbench.panel.defaultLocation": "left" but it says it has been deprecated
2. Right click at terminal header does not show the "Move to Left" option anymore, instead there's only a Move Views to side panel, which results in a right-side placement, not left
3. View > Appearence does not have the desired option anymore

I'm using Visual Studio Code Insiders version 1.65.0-insider. Until 3 days ago, I was not having any problem connecting to the remote server at work from my work laptop through a VPN. I have my ssh config file and when I opened vscode (when connected to the VPN), I was asked for my password and it connected without problems.

However, from yesterday I have started getting an error stating Could not establish connection to idk4v: The VS Code Server failed to start. idk4v is the remote machine's name that I gave in my ssh config file. I also get Waiting for server log... in the output continuously. I am pasting the output here from trying out just now. I have removed the non-essential parts for brevity:

I am trying to transform an old non-SDK-style mstest project that was generated with Visual Studio into a new SDK-style project using only Visual Studio Code.

I read and followed this little how-to, but this is only for .NET core and newer; not for .NET framework.

I need my project to target both. If I do it like this

I was following the steps here:

https://www.fleekitsolutions.com/use-selenium-c-visual-studio-code/

To use Selenium 4 with vs code. Then this led me to the following instructions here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/windows?tabs=net60#install-with-powershell-automation

to install .NET 6 SDK using PowerShell script, and I got the error below:

dotnet-install.ps1: Exception calling "ExtractToFile" with "3" argument(s): "The archive entry was compressed using an unsupported compression method.

See the snapshot below.

My intention was to get the latest version of "Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio" which led me to the above instructions to install dotnet 6 sdk.

Note the I am using elevated admin PowerShell console for this purpose.

I also got a similar error when I was trying to install the latest version of Selenium PowerShell Module using PowerShell. When I installed version 3.0.1 of Selenium-PowerShell module, it was successful.

Edit: After installing .NET SDK 6 from MS Build Tools, I completed the steps to configure vscode for Selenium 4, and now I am getting this error:
