Please include the following with each issue:

1. Describe the bug

I have the same issue as describer in Ticket https://github.com/microsoft/AL/issues/540.

After modifying AL Code this error:

Reloading VS Code did not help and i start investigating. I noticed that this issue occurs for me, because i created a function with variables but i did not defined the var line in front of the variables.

    procedure DeleteTourPlanLineManually(var BITBETourPlanLine: Record "BITBE Tour Plan Line")
        ManualDeletionLbl: Label 'Tour Plan Line: Line manually deleted.', Comment = 'DES="Tourplanzeile: Zeile manuell gelöscht."';
    begin
        DeleteTourPlanLine(BITBETourPlanLine, ManualDeletionLbl);
    end;

The function should look like this:

    procedure DeleteTourPlanLineManually(var BITBETourPlanLine: Record "BITBE Tour Plan Line")
    var
        ManualDeletionLbl: Label 'Tour Plan Line: Line manually deleted.', Comment = 'DES="Tourplanzeile: Zeile manuell gelöscht."';
    begin
        DeleteTourPlanLine(BITBETourPlanLine, ManualDeletionLbl);
    end;

2. To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to '...'

• Create a new AL Project
• Create a new function in a custom codeunit and define a label as a variable.
• Delete the var line.

3. Expected behavior

I would expect that the AL Server is not crashing and pointing to the issue instead.

4. Actual behavior

The AL Server is crashing and therefore further development is limited.

5. Versions:

• AL Language: v13.0.1027618
• Visual Studio Code:

Final Checklist

• [x] Simplify your code around the issue to better isolate the problem

I tried reproducing this but couldn't, but it could be that I'm also missing some context. Can you try using the pre-release version to check if it reproduces on that build as well? It should be AL extension version 14 and above.

If you can share the verbose logs, that will also help since it will give us the stacktraces. Can you do the following?

1. In your VSCode settings.json, set "al.editorServicesLogLevel": "Verbose"
2. Reproduce the scenario
3. Under the path C:\Users\<username>\.vscode\extensions\ms-dynamics-smb.al-<version>\bin\win32, collect the editorservice.log and debuggerservices.log files.

Thanks!

EditorServices.log EditorServices_Error.log

There was not any debuggerservices.log created. I uploaded both clean files. One with the error and one without the error.

This is the affected object:

TourMgt.Codeunit.al.txt

Crash also happens in prelease version: Tested with v14.0.1044805 (pre-release)

It is not a big deal for me. Just wanted to share that there is a potential problem.
