Latex completion not working

[torkar]

Hi,

I've installed 0.11.0-beta2 and run it with Code 1.29.1 and Julia 1.02 on OS X. For some reason, when I type \beta[tab] in my Julia REPL it works, but if I open a file foo.jl and type it there it doesn't. Have I messed something up (can I check that somehow?) or is 0.11.0-beta2 not supporting this?

Otherwise, thanks for an excellent extension and the work you put in this!

I've restarted and all, and I noticed this now:

Could not start the julia language server. Make sure the configuration setting julia.executablePath points to the julia binary.

(it points to the executable)

And when trying to run the REPL I get:
"The terminal process terminated with exit code: 1"
And in the terminal I see a stacktrace flying by after this message:
"ERROR: LoadError: UndefVarError: Display not defined"

These are the only packages I have installed:

And when removing the extension (Julia-vscode) and reinstalling 0.11.0-beta2 I can now open the REPL again, the language server is not complaining, but latex completion still doesn't work.

The language server will take a long time the first time you start it before it is operational, can you just give it some time and see whether it then starts to work? A couple minutes...

[torkar]

The server starts immediately now (used Atom today). However, \beta[tab] does not produce a beta?

[davidanthoff]

@ZacLN any idea?

[ZacLN]

Is this vscode or Atom? Do other language features work (i.e. hovers)? Do other completions work?

[torkar]

When I open VS code (and 0.11.0-beta2) and type \beta[tab] the following happens for 20 sek:

And then this happens (notice also bottom right corner):

Thank you for working on this project.

Will the “Could not start the julia language server” bug observed on Julia 1.0/MacOS/VS Code be address by v0.11.0 GA?

Also, wondering if you’d suggest using Atom in the interim. Just getting started with Julia.
Cheers

I think this extension is still under development so using Atom in the meantime (with Juno) is probably your best bet.

If you have trouble getting set up, see http://lectures.quantecon.org/jl/getting_started.html and http://lectures.quantecon.org/jl/tools_editors.html

Thank you.

When the language server crashes, there should be an option to send an automatic crash report. Did you do that? In general, that is the most helpful thing for us if you can agree to that.
