Write-Output does not display

[anwather]

Example code below - nothing appears in the debug console until I set and disable a breakpoint. Write-Host works fine.
Function Get-MyProcess
{

$x = Get-Process -Name TabTip
Write-Output "$($x.ProcessName)"
}

Get-MyProcess

We believe we know what the issue is. A fix for this should be forthcoming in a 0.5.1 release.

[daviwil]

Yep! This is something caused by some recent changes in VS Code's debugger interface. We're pretty sure that this will be fixed in 0.6.0 (to be released in a week or less).

[daviwil]

Just verified that this is fixed for 0.6.0. I'll close this bug once the update has shipped.

[daviwil]

0.6.0 is now released! Let me know if you run into any further trouble.

v0.7.2

I'm using two Write-Output calls immediately after calling Invoke-RestMethod. The two statements output to the console as expected in ISE. When running the same script in VS Code, the two Write-Ouput statements don't output anything unless I set a break point on the first one and step over them one at a time. These two statements are at the end of the file.

Here's a simple test:

Write-Output "Line 1"
$x = 1
Write-Output "Line 2"

v0.7.2
Any luck with the investigation?
Thanks!

[daviwil]

I've got a better way in mind to solve this problem, going to try and make it happen for the next big release (0.8.0)!

[ghost]

When can we expect the next big release?
Thanks!

[daviwil]

I'm shooting for the first couple weeks of October.
