Updating from official/gallery build to beta releases
See original GitHub issueBoth @itlackey and me ran into an issue updating from the 1.5.3
version to the 1.6.0-beta6
version from GitHub on a Mac (OS X 10.12, VSCode version 1.8.0).
It seems that the old and new extensions were installed side-by-side and the old one would load instead of the new one.
code --list-extensions
would show only ms-vscode.csharp
installed.
Executing ode --uninstall-extension ms-vscode.csharp
once succeeded but code --list-extensions
still showed the extension being installed. Executing the uninstall command a second time removed the extension for good (not listed anymore). Then installing the .vsix
again using code --install-extension
fixed the issue, leaving only the newest beta6
version installed which successfully loaded.
I’m not sure if this is a packaging issue or a VSCode bug… cc @DustinCampbell
The issue manifests itself in seeing the error message The target "ResolveReferences" does not exist in the project.
even though all the newest bits seem to be installed.
This was probably also observed by @mcmonkey4eva on https://github.com/dotnet/cli/issues/4999.

Thanks @joaomoreno for clarifying, closing this in favour of the mentioned vscode issues.
Thanks @joaomoreno! And to be clear, I think we are interested in a beta channel for extensions. However, as @gregg-miskelly mentioned, this is kind of a different scenario.
