A list of all issues and changes can be found in the v0.19.0 milestone.

Community

• Go Nightly users are encouraged to discuss issues and share feedback in the #vscode-go-nightly slack channel as well as the newly created Go Nightly mailing list (Issue 817)
• All experiments have been turned on for Go nightly (Issue 818)

Enhancements

• Added a snippet for TestMain (Issue 629)
• Added lispcase, pascalcase and keep as transform variants for go.addTags (Issue 906, 936)
• Added support for gomodifytags's --template flag (Issue 826)
• Language Server
  • Upgraded to the latest vscode-languageclient pre-release (Issue 42148)

Fixes

• Fixed test streaming output handling to correctly add -json flag (Issue 471)
• Fixed bug that unnecessarily buffered test output (Issue 917)
• Fixed a bug that occurred when choosing a new Go environment using the file picker (Issue 868, 864)
• Hide running test StatusBarItem after cancelling tests
• Tool Installation
  • Unset GOOS/GOARCH/GOROOT/... from tool installation env since the tools need to be built for the host machine (Issue 628)
  • Changed the dependency tool installation to use the go command chosen from the current GOROOT/bin for gocode-gomode too (Issue 757)
• Filter out unsupported document types to improve VS Code Live Share experience (Issue 605)
• Fixed language server survey computation error
• Debugging
  • No longer shows a warning about editing Go files if there is no Go Debug Session running.
  • Now removes user set '--gcflags' before passing the program to the debugger, since the debugger adds its own flags before building resulting in an error (Issue 117)
  • Fixed bug where the working directory passed in by the user is ignored (Issue 918)

Code Health

• Debugging
  • Added additional tests for the debug adapter including for disconnect requests and remote attach scenarios (Issue 779, 790)
  • Added tests for the debug configuration to test the user settings that should affect the debug configuration
• Improved the extension contributor experience by renaming the test fixtures folder to avoid errors being shown for these files
• Language Server Tests
  • Changed the test environment setup to use single file edit (Issue 655, 832)
• Adjusted home directory used in gerrit CI since recent changes in kokoro were restricting access (Issue 833)
• Updated Github workflows actions/setup-go to v2
• Restructured the goTest code to be more readable and easier to test
• Continued to improve the gopls settings documentation generator (Issue 197)
