No intellisense for variables in Razor pages when adding conditions on breakpoint

vsfeedback commented 3 years ago

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.

There is no intellisene when you set a breakpoint and you try to add conditional statement on the breakpoint. To reproduce this:

File new Blazor project (server side)
On FetchData page, set a breakpoint OnInitiliazedAysn()
Start the App
when it hits the breakpoint, try to add a condition by typing the forecasts variable name and nothing comes up.

This is a super interesting point. @tmat what does it take to enable the C# completion list for breakpoints in embedded scenarios?

tmat commented 3 years ago

IIRC debugger completion (in immediate window, watch window, conditional bps) is using some legacy interfaces and complex projection buffer logic. So we'll probably want to delete it and start from scratch with LSP.

tmat commented 3 years ago

This will be a lot of work - I believe we need to 1) use C# scripting language parsing in all these scenarios (unify with interactive window), 2) switch interactive window to LSP, 3) replace immediate window UI with interactive window UI
