Generated code (WPF, *.g.cs files) triggers infinite textDocument/diagnostic loop
Type: Bug
Issue Description
Since version 2.22.3, for WPF projects (possibly other types as well), the extension sometimes gets stuck in a loop where it executes textDocument/diagnostic, which causes /obj/debug/.../*.g.cs files to be regenerated, which causes workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles to trigger, which causes the extension to run textDocument/diagnostic, and so on... resulting in instability and heavy CPU usage.
(This may not be the actual sequence of events, just my guess from observing and reading the logs.)
Steps to Reproduce
This has affected multiple projects of mine, and I was able to reproduce the issue using a fresh dotnet new wpf template project.
- Create a new folder named
test - Navigate into folder in powershell
- Execute
dotnet new wpf - Open folder in VSCode (
code .) - Allow extension to create the suggested artifacts
- Check #C Extension output logs
Expected Behavior
Extension executes the code Analysis once (or not at all?).
Actual Behavior
Infinite analysis loop (see description above).
Workarounds
Downgrading to version to version 2.18.16 stops the issue. Also, switching to Omnisharp ("dotnet.server.useOmnisharp": true) works as well.
Logs
The logs run infinitely, so they are quite long, but below I tried to capture two full loops. If more logs are necessary, I can record more.

Attaching more logs from the start of a new session. logs.zip
Thanks for the detailed report. Think I know what the general issue here is.
The language server registers file watchers for all .cs files in the workspace - if .cs files are added or removed we know we need to reload the project in order to ensure the right files are reflected in the right projects. However - this is problematic for the xaml generated .g.cs files in the obj/ directory. When we reload the project, we call msbuild to do a design time build. It seems like this design time build is re-generating the .g.cs file - which causes a file watcher notification - which causes a project reload - which causes a file watcher change - ad infinitum.
A potential fix here is to ignore the obj/ directory for changes to .cs files. Since these are all generated, theoretically any changes to .cs files here would be triggered by changes to the project or other files outside of obj/, which we would hear about and reload the project to see the updated generated code. We shouldn't need to explicitly look for changes that only happen in obj/.
It is also a bit weird that text only changes to closed files cause a project reload - theoretically we should be able to just update the text of existing files. But that wouldn't solve this issue by itself since the file is getting added/removed/changed.
(cc @jasonmalinowski)
@michaelpduda As a workaround while we fix the issue, you can exclude all .cs files in the obj/ folder from VSCode's file watcher in vscode settings
