Reports Missing closing '}' on a if statement when not all on one line or the { not on the next line with powershell version 5
Prerequisites
- [x] I have written a descriptive issue title.
- [x] I have searched all open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
- [x] I have read the troubleshooting guide.
- [x] I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
- [x] I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
- [x] If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.
Summary
When running the following simple script: `$ben = $true
if ($ben) { Write-Output "ben" } `
the extension throws this error:
Missing closing '}' in statement block or type definition. + CategoryInfo : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : MissingEndCurlyBrace
if the script looks like this: `$ben = $true
if ($ben) { Write-Output "ben" }`
or this: `$ben = $true
if ($ben) { Write-Output "ben" } `
it works. Or if I switch to version 7 of powershell.
