.code-workspace defined tasks not appearing about vscode-tasks HOT 5 CLOSED

This, in package.json
"activationEvents": [ "workspaceContains:.vscode/tasks.json" ],
need to change to:
"activationEvents": [ "*" ],

from vscode-tasks.

I do not understand your question. Can you elaborate more?

from vscode-tasks.

Tasks can be defined either in a file tasks.json OR directly in a myproject.code-workspace file that contains workspace related settings.

If I define the tasks, in tasks.json file, VS Code recognizes the tasks (Ctrl+Shift+P will show the tasks) and also your extension displays the tasks as buttons. Everything works nice.

If I delete the tasks.json file and move the tasks in myproject.code-workspace file, VS code recognizes the tasks (Ctrl+Shift+P will show the tasks) but your extension does NOT show them as buttons.

Is this extension capable of reading tasks from myproject.code-workspace files ?

from vscode-tasks.

VSCode's support for workspace tasks is not yet complete. So this is not yet possible.

Once VSCode is ready, I will implement it.

This now work, but only if you also have a .vscode/tasks.json in your folder. If tasks.json is not present, tasks in the .code-workspace are ignored.
