"Go To Python object" doesn't work since v0.8.0

[slint]

Environment data

VS Code version: 1.18.1
Python Extension version: 0.8.0
OS and version: Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit

Actual behavior

Warning notification shows up: TypeError: Cannot read property 'toString' of undefined

Expected behavior

Opening the definition source file of the Python path entered.

(Another valuable "feature" on top of this would be to have some sort of "auto-completion" over the installed Python packages when typing inside the opened input prompt, which would make exploration of packages much easier. I would be happy to move this as a feature request in a separate issue)

Steps to reproduce:

• Run the Go To Python object command (Ctrl+O or from command palette)
• Type a Python path of a package installed in the current Python environment (eg. flask.blueprints)
• Warning notification appears as described above

Keep in mind that "manually" emulating the behavior of the command works, thus the resolution of the Python path is not the issue here:

• Type import flask.blueprints in an open .py file
• Bring cursor over the blueprints word and press F12
• Source definition file opens (/some/venv/path/lib/python2.7/site-packages/flask/blueprints.py)

Logs

Output from Console window (Help->Developer Tools menu)

PS: Thank you for all the great work on making VS Code the most pleasant editor I've ever used for developing Python. Best of wishes for the extension's (and your) new home at Microsoft 👏

Hi @slint! Thanks for reporting this issue. I was able to verify it's still a problem (at least on linux). We'll look into it as soon as we can.

As to your auto-completion feature request, go ahead and file a separate issue for that. Thanks!

Should be fixed for 2018.2 now
