VS Code version:

C# Extension version:

1.14.0

Steps to reproduce

1. Open or Create a C# project.

   dotnet new mvc --auth individual
   

2. Open any C# file. I used Startup.cs.
3. Type MyClass abc
4. Click on Show Fixes, or press Ctrl + .
5. From the list of options, select Generate type 'MyClass' -> Generate class 'MyClass' in new file
6. Open the generated file MyClass.cs
7. The file contains an empty file, instead of a basic template.

Although the screenshots show I'm using some extensions, I removed all the other extensions from VS Code when I was testing this. Plus I tested on two different machines.

Expected behavior

The generated class or interface file should have namespace and class name defined from templates.

Actual behavior

The generated file has no content.

This is bothering me so much. Any helps will be appreciated!

When I click on "Generate Class" (in the same text file), it works fine.

I installed the current version on VS Code Insider, and on previous VS Code versions but I still had the same issue. So it looks like this issue is not coming from VS Code but more of this extension itself.

I installed v1.13.1 (https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-vscode/releases) and the issue was gone. I can generate a new type in a new file.

The version v1.14.0 appears to have introduced this issue. I did not test with other versions.

I tested with Auto Extension Update disabled. This feature is so important to me and it looks like I will have to stay with v1.13.1 for now.

For a future note to myself and for anyone trying to reproduce:

To disable auto updating extensions:

To install a specific version of Extension:

Click on the "Install from VXIS" from the above screenshot, or

code --install-extension myextension.vsix

This issue is not fixed in the most updated beta version v1.15.0-beta3

Thanks for the added detail @brokenbacon! @rchande, could this have been broken with some of your code action changes in 1.14?

This should be fixed now.
