1.10.5

Instructions

Install it via using the Extensions view in VS Code or download a vsix that matches your OS from Assets section below (or the "Download" dropdown in the "Version History" tab section on the Marketplace website) and then use the Extensions: Install from VSIX... command in VS Code (don't double-click the vsix or another app like VS might try to open it incorrectly).

Requirements

• VS Code 1.63.0 or later.

Bug Fixes

• Fix 'System.NullReferenceException when continuing after adding breakpoint.' #1297

Known Issues

Regressions

• Some users are seeing IntelliSense not working (stuck with "Searching for includes" or "Updating IntelliSense"). #9431
• '@responseFile' in compilerArgs doesn't work on Linux/Mac with 1.10.5 (IntelliSense breaks). #9434
• Code analysis crashes in certain scenarios. #9437
• Debug preLaunchTask fails if C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngine is set to "Disabled". #9446

By-Design Breaking Changes

• Binary mismatch error. We believe it's a VS Code or external bug. #9433
