Describe the Issue

I don't know if this is the wrong place to express the frustration here, but, since I have been using VS Code for ASP.net core development in apple silicon macbook devices, build error doesn't show any relevant file name or line number in the terminal or in the problem tab.

I had to commit the error in GIT and switch over to a windows device that run Visual Studio, then, re-run the build again to find out the error producing filename and line number.

This is a frustrating job to back and forth every time any clumsy error or syntax error getting unnoticed and then spending a few hours to look for it if you close the relevant file, or ship over the bad code to the version control in another device, then solve it.

Steps To Reproduce

No response

Expected Behavior

Build error's file and diagnostic result should be visible to the problem tab.
