[BUG] VSCode Output Console Keeps Opening and Displaying RobotCode Logging

[jeremy-of-laurel]

Describe the bug Starting in version 0.37.0, my VSCode Output console began opening on it's own when typing into a .robot file. Even if I disable the Output console tab, it opens itself anyway, and console information is generated once I begin interacting with a file. The RobotCode extension appears to be the culprit.

I verified with others on my team that they have started experiencing this as well.

This becomes a hindrance throughout the day because I heavily utilize the VSCode terminals, but my terminal keeps switching to the Output window while I work.

Below is an example of the generated output that frequently appears when interacting with a file:

I verified this scenario does not happen if I disable the RobotCode extension.

To Reproduce

1. Install the RobotCode extension
2. Open a .robot file.
3. Disable the Output window in VSCode
4. Begin typing into a .robot file. The Output console will re-open automatically and display logging for RobotCode extension.

Expected behavior The Output console should stay closed if I disable/hide it in my VSCode session. RobotCode should not re-open it automatically.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• VS Code Version: 1.78.2
• RobotCode Version: 0.37.0 and 0.37.1
• OS: Ubuntu 22.04.2
• Python Version: 3.10.6
• RobotFramework Version: 6.0.2
