Description

Type: Bug

I recently uninstalled and re-installed VSCode due to issues with the C# DevKit extension. It would complain that a type was not found even though "dotnet build" succeeds. After re-installing VSCode and the C# DevKit extension, I'm experiencing the same behavior.

  • I first noticed the behavior after renaming a class. Running on MacOS Ventura.
  • Another time I renamed a folder and moved a file from one namespace to another. Even after manually fixing the referenes, the editor still shows type not found errors
  • Worth mentioning that I did the renames from the File Explorer (as opposed to the solution explorer)

C# DevKit is the only extension installed. Closing and re-opening VSCode resolves the issue (at least temporarily), though I've seen this behavior several times today. Typically while refactoring.
