LaTeX-Workshop: Activating Extension failed

Hi.

I am sorry but I cannot exactly describe this problem. It occurs frequently in these few days. The Latex-workshop seems stuck at some process. It is normal a few days ago.

I try to manual click the activate icon ’√‘ at the left status bar of vscode and It shows Activating Extension... and then re-show ’√‘ after a few second.

I try to click the extension icon of the left bar. It shows like this: latex-workshop

It seems the extension stuck when paring the structure of tex files.

My tex dir tree is as follows: thesis.tex(root file,\input{Tex/chap1},\input{Tex/chap1}…) — Tex — — chap1 — — chap2 — — chap3…

I try to install and reinstall the extension a few times but the problem can not solved. If I restart the vscode and the extension works again. But it can not figure out when the problem occurs again.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: ubuntu 16.04
  • VS Code version: 1.31.1
  • Extension version: 6.0.0

I have managed to reproduce the issue. This is again a catastrophic backtracking. I will try to fix tonight.

@James-Yu I guess we could make a new release.
