Inline variable gone from suggestions

[stefanrybacki]

It seems the option to inline a variable is gone from the available suggestions. It used to be available I am sure but cannot find it anymore when displaying suggestions.

Environment

• Operating System: Linux
• JDK version: 11
• Visual Studio Code version: 1.73.0
• Java extension version: 1,12,0

Steps To Reproduce

1. In a java function write:

var x=1;
var y=x+1;

2. go to x in the second line and trigger suggestions
3. find there is no option to inline variable x

Current Result

inline variable option is not available

Expected Result

inline variable option is available

Could you share a sample project? It seems working on my side.

[stefanrybacki]

@jdneo that is interessting, this is what I get

Could it be some kind of setting then?

Yes, it's really strange. I don't think there is any setting that will affect this.

How is your code looks like? What if you declare the type explicitly instead of using var?

Code looks like the example given:

I just tested with int instead of var, same suggestions. No inline local variable suggestion though. Really weird.

can you find other inline suggestions here? e.g., hover on test, can you find Inline Method suggestion?

[stefanrybacki]

@CsCherrYY thanks for the suggestion,

in fact I can see inline suggestions for constants

as well as methods:

You might have vscode set to using the workspace version of tsc. That's sensible, since the errors you get in the editor are the same as when you compile. But you also can't use newer features.

Setting it to a newer version fixed it for me:
