Tab list gets corrupted when a new webview is opened (extension API) #228270
Description
Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
- VS Code Version: Works <= 1.89.1, broken >= 1.90.2
- OS Version: Linux x64 6.1.0-23-amd64
We develop an extension in which an existing tab gets replaced by a webview. We simply store a reference to the existing tab, open a webview and then close the original tab. This has worked fine up to version 1.89.1. On version >= 1.90.2 closing the tab using vscode.window.tabGroups.close fails with the exception Tab close: Invalid tab not found!. The tab has not been closed in the meantime nor did we get any close notifications for it via vscode.window.tabGroups.onDidChangeTabs.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create an extension with the following function exposed as command:
async dummy(): Promise<void> {
const tab = vscode.window.tabGroups.activeTabGroup.activeTab;
if (!tab) {
console.log("Please open a tab to test this code.");
return;
}
const panel = vscode.window.createWebviewPanel(
"TestPanel",
"Test",
tab.group.viewColumn);
panel.webview.html = "<body>Hello World</body>";
// Introduce a tiny delay
await panel.webview.postMessage("hello");
vscode.window.tabGroups.close(tab);
}- Open some tab and call the command
- Check the debug console for the
Tab close: Invalid tab not found!exception.
