VS Extension not generating lexer parser constructors

[snortblt]

In what few examples I can find scouring the web, it seems that the partial lexer/parser classes generated when adding a new parser or lexer via Visual Studio's "Add | New Item" menu (vian) don't have the expected constructors. The classes generated are completely empty yet the samples I see are calling constructors accepting an AntlrInputStream. If this isn't a bug, please provide additional explanation in the VS setup guide.

Using ANTLR Language Support extension v1.4.0, Antlr4 nuget package v4.6.6.

Getting this now too. Tried reinstalling. The log file doesn't mention anything ostensibly helpful.

The files created by the template are not the generated source files. You'll find the generated source file(s) in the intermediate output directory (typically obj\Debug and obj\Release) with the extension .g.cs. The empty files added to your project allow you to add new methods to the same class which contains generated code in another file. See Partial Classes and Methods for more information.

Well that's not good. Can you search in the XML file for "error" or "exception" and copy the information here? Hopefully I can make sense of it to fix the issue.

Not sure why, but uninstalling and reinstalling the extension a second time fixed both issues. I do have VS 2019 installed side by side with 2017. They are supposed to be independent, but I've seen evidence that that isn't always the case. Perhaps this is related.

Speaking of 2019, it appears the extension is not yet compatible with that version of VS. If not already, it would be great to have this on the backlog. Thanks for the great work!

The Visual Studio extension is actually part of tunnelvisionlabs/LangSvcV2. This repository just contains the C# runtime library, code generator, and MSBuild integration.
