Autocompletion per PEP 526 Type Annotations Not Working For List[x] where x is int, str, etc...

See original GitHub issue

Environment data

  • VS Code version: 1.26.1
  • Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): 2018.7.1
  • OS and version: macOS 10.13.6
  • Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): 3.7.0 (pyenv, miniconda)
  • Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | …): conda, pyenv
  • Relevant/affected Python packages and their versions: NA

Actual behavior

Type hinting not working for some PEP 526 style annotations (in my case List[?] does not work)

screen shot 2018-08-24 at 3 07 22 pm

Expected behavior

Type hinting to recognize variable type annotations in the function declaration. Screenshot below of what I would expect from above (note in the function declaration I did not specify the type in the list).

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create new python file

  2. Specify any Python 3.6+ interpretter

  3. fill out

    from typing import List

def foo(a: List[int]):
   a.# now wait for auto-complete

I can replicate this.

@MikhailArkhipov can’t quite decide if I want to make this a P1 since a decent amount of type hints will be a generic like this, but it also doesn’t crash the language server or prevent it from working otherwise.
