Broke with VS Codium 1.77.0.23090

[andreiborisov]

The custom build of Monkey patch seems to work still, but Customize UI settings no longer change anything in the UI.

Same here. @daiyam Is it mangled again?
@knopp @lehni please look into this.

[daiyam]

The Insiders version was fine so far. I've haven't check on that build. (about the mangling)

Edit: I've checked, VSCodium 1.77.0 isn't mangled.

[lehni]

I don't have time right now to look into this but will check later next week. I did see that it's not entirely broken, some features of CustomizeUI do get applied. I also saw an error in the console. I'd imagine it's just that CSS / JS has changed and the patch doesn't have the same effect anymore. I'm not a maintainer of CustomizeUI and am not familiar with its internals.

I've debugged and fixed this now. For now I'll just recommend installing the extensions from the attached VSIX files. Perhaps I'll decide to keep a fork of monkey-patch and customize-ui maintained under a new namespace, just for VSCodium, we shall see. Enjoy!

customize-ui-0.2.0.vsix.zip
monkey-patch-0.2.0.vsix.zip

To avoid confusion, I've updated the version numbers to the next minor version.

[andreiborisov]

Works like a charm! Thank you @lehni! 🫶🏻

In more recent updates, specifically version 1.77.3.23102, the patch you have provided appears to be ineffective, @lehni.

[lehni]

@backermanbd I'm on 1.77.3. 23102 and it works perfectly for me. What are you seeing?

[ghost]

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Initially, when I uninstalled the customize ui extension and installed your patched version, it didn't seem to function correctly. However, after performing a complete reinstallation and clearing all caches, the issue has been resolved and the patched version is now operational.

[lehni]

Interesting, I had the same problem happening too. It may be that the previous version has left the app in a broken state when it started failing.

[daiyam]

Maybe in the UI db state.vscdb?

[lehni]

I think it's related to leaving the patched and unpatched backup files in a a state of mess.

[zisra]

@lehni Sorry for bothering, I installed both your custom extensions but nothing seems to have changed

[lehni]

A little heads up to everybody interested that the new APC extension now offers a viable path forward, see:
