Prerequisites

  • I have written a descriptive issue title.
  • I have searched all issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
  • I have read the troubleshooting guide.
  • I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
  • I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
  • If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

After upgrading to 2022.6.1, I'm seeing a changed behavior when executing selected lines. Works fine in 2022.5.1.

Given the following two lines..

$foo = "bar"
Write-Output "Foo is $foo"

..I expect the output in the terminal to be

C:\temp> $foo = "bar"
Write-Output "Foo is $foo"

Foo is bar

instead I get:

C:\temp> $foo = "bar"
Write-Output "Foo is $foo"

Foo is bar
C:\temp> $foo = "bar"
>> Write-Output "Foo is $foo"
>>

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Select a few lines of code and hit F8 to execute the selection, e.g.:
$foo = "bar"
Write-Output "Foo is $foo"
  1. The lines execute, but they are repeated again and waiting for input:
C:\temp> $foo = "bar"
Write-Output "Foo is $foo"

Foo is bar
C:\temp> $foo = "bar"
>> Write-Output "Foo is $foo"
>>
