Task launch gets stuck on "Fetching build task"

[lbarasti]

if I update the VS extension to the latest version (0.4.0), and launch a task - e.g. a crystal run task - the task won't start, and the loading spinner for "Fetching build task" will keep on... spinning. I'm on VS 1.44.2 running on Ubuntu 19.10

Running tasks without any vscode-crystal extension works just fine, as well as running tasks with v0.3.14 of the extension.

@faustinoaq mentioned that this issue might be due to the task provider implementation not working properly, see https://github.com/crystal-lang-tools/vscode-crystal-lang/pull/77

Hi @lbarasti Thank you for reporting this issue!

I'm already trying to fix it :)

Also running into this problem!

Any updates on this? It seems like this only happens when the visible editor is a crystal-related file.

Can we at least pull 0.4.0 from the official releases until this is fixed? It keeps auto-upgrading to this version that has this broken behavior. @faustinoaq

Let me know if this still occurs on v0.9.0
