Visual Studio code does not work

[glacial hill]

I use visual studio to program an since wendsday is not working.
It says it compiled the program but is not printing anything.

Ex.
I do the basic hello world but wen i run the code it does not print hello world, but says it has compiled. How can i fix this problem

[woven quail]

Can you show a screenshot of your VS window

[glacial hill]

[woven quail]

That's vscode, not vs

[glacial hill]

so whats the vs?

[glacial hill]

???

[craggy wind]

Visual studio is found when you search on google for Visual Studio Without the "code" at the end. Then you should be redirected to a page where you can download the windows executable

[glacial hill]

oww i forgot to specify

[craggy wind]

If you want to do c++ in visual studio code

Then follow this guide for your specific operating system.

[glacial hill]

im using visual studio code

i have it installed

[craggy wind]

Are you running the code from the run button in your code editor?

[glacial hill]

yes

[craggy wind]

Try to compile and run the code manually in terminal.

[glacial hill]

how

[craggy wind]

Or try to follow the instructions in the guide I showed here:;

[craggy wind]

g++ -o HelloWorld HelloWorld.cpp

Then run the executable generated by doing .\HelloWorld.exe

[glacial hill]

sorry if im slow to understand

[craggy wind]

That's fine

[glacial hill]

this one on the terminal or the other one?

[craggy wind]

That command should be run in the integrated terminal in visual studio code (if you are in the folder where the file you are trying to compile is)

[glacial hill]

i think im doing something wrong

Visual Studio code does not work

[craggy wind]

If you are unsure you can send a screenshot so I can see what you are seeing.

[glacial hill]

should i show you the error

[craggy wind]

Yeah

[glacial hill]

the program should work

[craggy wind]

Yes it should, please follow these instructions for setting up cpp to run in visual studio code and after completing please try to use the run button again.

[glacial hill]

The funny thing is that i was programing up to wensday and VSc was working fine

[glacial hill]

If you dont mind i need to eat

[craggy wind]

That's fine, when you are done, you can try to open a new terminal outside of visual studio code and then navigate to the folder where your project file HelloWorld.cpp is (with cd) and run the following command to compile the program: g++ -o HelloWorld HelloWorld.cpp

[glacial hill]

When you say outside what are you refering to ?

[craggy wind]

Outside as in not the integrated terminal that you can use in visual studio code but the one when you press windows + r and type cmd

[glacial hill]

Okok

[glacial hill]

Hello

[glacial hill]

I already use the .cpp

It was working

And in the middle of a new program it stop working

[woven quail]

What vscode extensions do you have?

[glacial hill]

here

[woven quail]

Yeah that's probably related to "Code Runner"

[glacial hill]

what should i do?

[rancid tree]

@glacial hill has reached level 4. GG!

[woven quail]

What do you need the extension for?

[glacial hill]

im actually not sure about the Code Runner one because someone added it afther VSc stop working for me. it work for like 30m and the problem was back

[craggy wind]

.

[woven quail]

I would just remove code runner and follow https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/cpp to run your C++ code or use VS since that will bring less problems

Also, whats C/C++ Compile Run?

Just stick to one process of compiling and running your application rather than using three different extensions

[glacial hill]

something the profesor told us to install

[woven quail]

Oh, your professor is telling you to use vscode?

I've never worked with C/C++ Compile Run nor Code Runner though both could be related to the exception

[glacial hill]

yes

[woven quail]

https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine seems to be related to this somehow

[glacial hill]

and i was using it until wensday al lunch that it stoped working

[woven quail]

Maybe one of your extensions is using this?

[glacial hill]

wile i was using it

[woven quail]

You could try this by the way

But there shouldn't be a issue there

https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine/issues/4237 ooops 😂

[craggy wind]

I mean couldn't he try to remove the module PSReadLine and see if it fixes it? and just reinsatll it if it doesn't. From what I understand it's for maintaining terminal commands history

[woven quail]

Remove PSReadLine from where? He could try to remove the two third party extensions

@glacial hill I would try to use cmd instead of powershell in your vscode terminal

I guess there is a setting for that somewhere

From integratedterminal to internalconsole

So that you don't rely on PSReadLine anymore

[craggy wind]

You can remove a module temporarily by using Remove-Module PSReadLine, but using cmd instead would probably also fix it.

[glacial hill]

i uninstall the VSc something user and installed it again

and its working for know

[woven quail]

vsc something user?

What's that

[glacial hill]

i said something because i dont remember

but thanks

;-;

it didnt last

[glacial hill]

i did not know it was related

[woven quail]

The exception you get is referring to it's github repo

[glacial hill]

i did noticed that but i dont know why

it stop working

again

[woven quail]

With internalconsole?

[glacial hill]

i dont know how to do that

[woven quail]

Do you have some sort of run configuration?

[glacial hill]

i dont know

;-;

[woven quail]

What's inside your .vscode folder

Make sure that "console": "internalConsole" is inside your launch.json

[woven quail]

If you go to the "Run and debug" tab (above the extension tab you are on) there should be something like "create launch.json file"

But I don't know how your other extensions behave

[glacial hill]

i can

[woven quail]

Great

[woven quail]

Now it's probably trying to run from your launch.json which it didn't before

What's inside your launch.json now?

[glacial hill]

i dont know

sorry

is this important ?

because it was not installed

[woven quail]

No

You don't need all these third party stuff

Only microsofts extensions should be enough

[glacial hill]

so what sould i do

[woven quail]

Take a look in your launch.json

Being limited to vscode makes things more difficult than they actually are lol

[glacial hill]

this?

[woven quail]

Yeah, you'll have to adjust that

[glacial hill]

what to be exact ?

[rancid tree]

@glacial hill has reached level 5. GG!

[woven quail]

You want to use G++, right?
