The new intellisense parsing, VS2022 dies to StackOverflow in CheckDeclarations.fs

[Thorium]

After latest F# and VS2022 batches the Visual Studio has went unreliable and just disappears sometimes when writing new text, leaving Windows Eventlog a devenv.exe error entry.

I attached another Visual Studio instance to my Visual Studio to see why it dies.

I have an F# file of 9313 lines, and meanwhile writing to anywhere really, it seems to be that compiler intellisense throws stack-overflow and that ends-up killing the whole VisualStudio 2022. Maybe the code after error, the unknown-part, is too big for the compiler to try to parse?

Here the "Cannot evaluate expression. Unknown error 0x80040014 from .NET debugging services." makes totally sense, as meanwhile typing the source-code cannot be parsed, I'm in a middle of a word!

The stackoverflow seems to come from CheckDeclarations.fs function TcMutRecDefns_Phase2:

fsharp/src/Compiler/Checking/CheckDeclarations.fs

Line 2110 in c910057

with RecoverableException exn -> errorRecovery exn scopem; [], envMutRec

I don't need intellisense outside my screen, so there is no reason to try to parse the whole file through!
And in case of any parsing error, it should just give-up and not parse.

It doesn't work like that unfortunately, to do anything it should typecheck everything dependant.

Regardless, it should be fixed in #17654

[Thorium]

Ok, hope to get the fix soon to live. It's VS2022 release we need to wait for and not FSharp.Core, right?

Yes, 17.12

[Thorium]

Tried it with current 17.12 preview-2 released 4 days ago, and I can confirm this is not fixed.
The VS 2022 17.12 still dies as the old one.

The current source-code seems to match the lines of the Github main.

[vzarytovskii]

It is not in preview2 yet, p2 was done (frozen) when fix was merged. Either 3 or 4.

It was just inserted into vs 4 days ago: #17693 preview builds are usually done days before release, so p2 is likely ~10d old, maybe even more.

[vzarytovskii]

@T-Gro could you please publish a vsix here on Monday, so @Thorium can install it to 17.2 locally and test it?

[T-Gro]

fsharp_vsix.zip

This is a .vsix built now.
Do not forget to uninstall it once a new VS update comes in, otherwise it would stay in overwriting the version coming together with VS.

Hi,
It's a bit slow, intellisense takes 14 seconds (I measured, on my laptop, 13th Gen i9-13900H, 2600 Mhz, 14 Core(s), 20 Logical Processor(s)).

But the main thing confirmed: the Visual Studio is not randomly dying anymore.
Which is excellent.
