VS Code Setup - Improved Extension

[flyer]

Hi,

I just installed VS Code along with the ECL extension, but it does not look like the result viewer feature that was added recently is working for me. I am able to submit a workunit to a specific target cluster, and I am able to see the results out on the ECL Watch page. However, I am unable to see the results within VS Code. Please see attachments.

Curious about whether there is some special setting that I am supposed to set in order to get that feature to be active.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks - What server version are you targeting?

Can you reproduce when you target: https://play.hpccsystems.com:18010/

Hi gmith,

I was not able to reproduce the issue using the target you provided and I think I figured out why.

Currently, I have two configurations for target servers: Dataland/Production. For security purposes, I chose to not have my password in the launch.json file. I left it empty so that every time I logged in VSCode and wanted to submit a workunit, I would be prompted to enter the password (See attachment). However, I learned that if I do that, the server does not appear to send a response back. If I keep the password in the launch.json file, I no longer see the issue with the result viewer. I am able to see results.

Is this behavior expected?

Thanks.

No its not expected.

FWIW The result page you see in VSCode is hosted in a different process to VSCode itself, so I pass in all the "settings" as params and I bet I am bypassing the cached pw in memory and pulling from the launch config (which is empty).

Well spotted - will try and get a fix out ASAP.

FYI I just pushed a fix to the VS Code Extension Marketplace (v2.8.0)
