How do I make a C# Console app build and debug in Visual Studio Code?
I have already built my C# Console App in Visual Studio Code. The issue I have is when I reopen the folder where the project file is in Visual Studio Code and then rebuilding the code and debugging it again.
Here is what I do and what happens. After I open the folder where the project file resides, I click on this to process the code to debug:
h t t p s : / / l i k a b l e l o g i c . o r g / i m a g e s / l o s t / 0 7 . p n g
(Icon showing the option to debug a solution)
And then I click on the appearing "Run and Debug" button
h t t p s : / / l i k a b l e l o g i c . o r g / i m a g e s / l o s t / 0 8 . p n g
(image of the Solution Explorer panel with a buttin of "Run and Debug)
But then the bottom status bar says "Looking for CSS classes in the workspace..." followed by a percentage in paragraphs. Why is this? Why does this happen when there are no CSS classes at all and my project is a C# project?
h t t p s : / / l i k a b l e l o g i c . o r g / i m a g e s / l o s t / 0 9 . p n g
(image of the status bar that appears at the bottom that says "Looking for CSS classes in the workspace..."
Why is this? This is just a brief snapshot of some difficulties I find when I reopen a project after I have closed Visual Studio Code. I have experienced other errors and problems in building and running my code.
To continue, in order to deal with the project as a solution, I click on this icon to open the solution panel.
h t t p s : / / l i k a b l e l o g i c . o r g / i m a g e s / l o s t / 1 0 . p n g
This seemingly allows me to view the solution. As the following view appears, I click on the project.cs file and attempt a debugging session from there.
h t t p s : / / l i k a b l e l o g i c . o r g / i m a g e s / l o s t / 1 1 . . . p n g
With this file being displayed, I clicked on the menu option, Run -> Start Debugging
h t t p s : / / l i k a b l e l o g i c . o r g / i m a g e s / l o s t / 1 2 . . . p n g
Then, at this point, in the pop up option window that appears in the middle and top of the development environment, I pick "C#":
h t t p s : / / l i k a b l e l o g i c . o r g / i m a g e s / l o s t / 1 3 . . . p n g
Something went wrong and in the bottom right of my IDE, I get this message:
h t t p s : / / l i k a b l e l o g i c . o r g / i m a g e s / l o s t / 1 4 . p n g
Please advise. What should I do now?
