Python: Go to Symbol in File Broken

From @rwinslow on June 11, 2018 18:39

Issue Type: Bug

Whenever I try to Go to Symbol in File I get a message “No Symbols Found”. I work with a large codebase and do not need Workspace symbols, only within the file. This was working maybe a version ago but has since been broken for a couple of weeks. Disabling extensions does not help.

VS Code version: Code 1.24.0 (6a6e02cef0f2122ee1469765b704faf5d0e0d859, 2018-06-06T17:30:30.113Z) OS version: Darwin x64 17.5.0

@JuliuszKaczmarek Try setting "python.jediMemoryLimit": -1 and see if that solves the problem. It looks like your Windows install has an unhappy wmic that we’re hitting.

Like @ericsnowcurrently I can’t reproduce in either Jedi or the new language server using the example file provided. And I do get more than top-level our top-level files with our latest development build and language server:

If you would like to try our latest development build that would be appreciated, otherwise feel free to wait until our August release which should hopefully fix this issue.
