This extension provides support for editing MATLAB® code in Visual Studio® Code and includes features such as syntax highlighting, code analysis, navigation support, and more.
Describe the bug
The execution of code does not stop when using the CTRL+C shortcut or by killing the MATLAB terminal when something is being printed to the terminal.
Steps to reproduce:
Create an infinite loop: while true; disp(1); end
Press CTRL+C to stop the process.
Kill the terminal by clicking the trashcan icon at the top of the integrated terminal window.
Expected behavior
Code execution should halt with the CTRL+C shortcut, and if that fails, it should stop when the terminal is terminated.

Additional context
This behavior seems unusual. Killing the terminal does not terminate the process. For example, with an infinite loop (while true end), closing the MATLAB terminal does not stop the execution. When opening a new MATLAB terminal, the code continues to run and can only be stopped with CTRL+C. However, in cases where output is being printed to the terminal (as described), neither CTRL+C nor killing the terminal works, and reopening the terminal becomes impossible. The only way to stop the process is to terminate the entire VSCode instance via Task Manager.
