Rewrap crashes with Solidity (.sol) files

[mirayashi]

Using pre-release version 17.8.0 (also reproducible with stable version 1.16.3).
VSCode version 1.81.0 on Ubuntu 22.04

Rewrapping comments in Solidity files (.sol extension) results in the following stack trace:

[Extension Host] TypeError: e.System.Collections.IEnumerator.MoveNext is not a function

With stable version (1.16.3), this error happens straight on startup if a .sol file is open when VSCode starts, which cause the extension to be entirely unavailable:

Activating extension 'stkb.rewrap' failed: e.System.Collections.IEnumerator.MoveNext is not a function.

Which results in the following when doing Alt+Q:

command 'rewrap.rewrapComment' not found

Having same issue. Any solution available?

[mirayashi]

Having same issue. Any solution available?

The only workaround that I found is to manually change the language of the current file (for exemple to JavaScript), do Alt+Q, then switch back to Solidity. You should be using either pre-release or downgrade to stable 1.15 in order to avoid the startup crash and the command not found error.

Unfortunately I have little hope for a long-term fix as the repository seems no longer actively maintained (last commit 1.5 years ago), and there doesn't seem to be any other extensions out there available as an alternative.

[matthiasgeihs]

ah, wasn't aware that it's not maintained anymore.

thx for the workaround tip.

i'm wondering: maybe the problem is not too hard to fix? any idea what might be causing it?
