I installed the ‘scilab language support’ extension from the vscode market place a few weeks ago and it had been working fine most of the time. Then, starting last week, it started saying “Scilab connection problem. Open launch.json?” when I try to start a new debug session. But it used to work again when I try again or when I restart Vscode. But now, it rarely works. Also, sometimes it does successfully run the script (display the plots) but the intellisense (auto-complete) is gone or the plotting doesn’t work again. And when I end the debug session and I try to execute another file, it fails to launch altogether. Does anyone else experience issues like these? I was really excited to write scilab from VScode because the editor is so much better! Thanks for any comment in advance!
PS: Extra info: Scilab version 2025.0.0, I tried reinstalling the extension but that didn’t work. My PC is Windows 10.
The error message I get the most is “Scilab quit with status 3221225477”, whatever that means…
Hi Maverick,
If I understand well, what you describe happens only when running a debug session.
There are some points I would like you to check:
- Is your script running well in Scilab without VSCode?
- Can you provide the content of the logs displayed in the output panel?
- Can you check the status located in the bottom right by clicking on
{}:
- Have you installed toolboxes?
Thanks,
Cédric
