Visual studio code
1.5.3
Xming 6.9.0.31
I had to jump quite a lot of hoops to get visual studio code installed. At the end, I managed to do that. When I run
code
or code .
It returns to the command line immediately with no error.
Then I ran
code --verbose
I get the following messages.
OpenGL Warning:

Also, installing node.js didnt help. Xwindow forwaring works fine for other programs, such as ImageMagick, QtCreator. etc.
Xming doesnt have features that are needed by vs code
. Installed VcXsrv and now it works as expected.
