Description
Describe the bug
The property 'editor' can be undefined (see Screenshots section).
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Start VSCode
- Check Breakpoints > Promise Rejects and Breakpoints > Uncaught Exceptions
- Start my extension in debug mode (Debugger > Launch client). I believe, that can be reproduced with any extension, though it happened to me during development of mine plugin.
- If any file is opened after start, close all of them and start again.
Expected behavior
The absence of the error.
Screenshots
Environment (please complete the following information):
- Extension (VsCodeVim) version: 0.16.3
- VSCode version: 1.27.1
- OS: Ubuntu 16.04
Additional context
-
Probably, that is same as #3030.
-
Code line I am talking about is src/mode/modeHandler.ts#1324

Research direction
Start at src/mode/modeHandler.ts line 1324 and compare the failure with the related issue #3030. Reproduce in VSCode 1.27.1 by enabling Promise Rejects and Uncaught Exceptions, launching an extension in debug mode, closing open files, and starting again; done means the 'editor' error no longer occurs.
