If you open a terminal inside VSCode and type /bin/sh -c "LCMESSAGES=C type swift" what is the output?

janvhs commented 9 months ago

Sorry, for the late response. It's the following:

$ /bin/sh -c "LCMESSAGES=C type swift"
swift ist /usr/bin/swift

I installed VSCode and Swift as RPM packages.

janvhs commented 9 months ago

Setting "swift.path": "/usr/bin" resolved the issue. Autodetection doesn't work, although I'm not sure if it is supposed to.

adam-fowler commented 9 months ago

Sorry that was a typo what happens when you call.

/bin/sh -c "LC_MESSAGES=C type swift"

It should return its output in English so I have a consistent language to parse.

janvhs commented 9 months ago

It's basically the same:

swift is /usr/bin/swift

Is auto-discovering the Swift executable a supported feature?

adam-fowler commented 9 months ago

Ah it's different. This time it is in English.

The latest release of the extension shouldn't need you to set the path anymore.

janvhs commented 8 months ago

Super random and hope you do not mind the ping, but thanks @adam-fowler for teaching me the LC_MESSAGES trick. I used it several times since you taught me its existence. It is really handy!
