Python running selection within function causes indentation error #4101
Description
Environment data
- VS Code version: 1.30.1
- OS and version: Linux Ubuntu 18.04 bionic
- Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): 2.7.15
Expected behaviour
After selecting indented lines (i.e.) inside a function/method/class and hitting Shift+Enter, code should execute in terminal without raising IndentationError.
Actual behaviour
For code:
def square(i):
s = i*i
s2 = s+1
return s2
selecting two lines with variable manipulation causes error.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create python source file.
- Create function inside it
- Select lines inside the function
- Press Shift+Enter to run the selection
Output
Python 2.7.15rc1 (default, Nov 12 2018, 14:31:15)
[GCC 7.3.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> s2 = s+1

Thanks for bringing this up, Michał Kaczanowicz (@vicrac). I've verified (on linux) with the latest release of the extension that this is failing as described. We'll working on fixing it.

FWIW, this reminds me of something we fixed a while back. Don Jayamanne (@DonJayamanne), do you remember that? I'm pretty sure you worked on it.

Michał Kaczanowicz (@vicrac) - I believe this has been resolved as of today.
