Tech stack: csharp
Domain: tooling

Research direction

The issue names only a C# file and the code --disable-extensions and --verbose entry points; first obtain the private reproducing file and confirm the hang with extensions disabled. Trace the C# grammar or opening path involved, and consider the issue done when that file opens without Code becoming unresponsive.

Description

Bug

From @leadZERO on July 17, 2017 21:8

I have a CSharp file that will cause Code to become unresponsive every time it is opened. I've tried to narrow it down to what about the file causes it, but it doesn't seem to be a single line, nor consistent. I've uninstalled all the extensions, tried running with --disable-extensions, and closing the active folder. I've also run code with --verbose, but it doesn't report anything after the arg display other than:

[main 3:02:30 PM] IPC#vscode-machineId
[main 3:02:30 PM] IPC#vscode-workbenchLoaded
[VS Code]: detected unresponsive

I'd be happy to email the file to one of the devs, but don't want to post on the open Internet.

VSCode Version: 1.14.1
OS Version: OS X 10.12.5

Steps to Reproduce:

Launch Code
Try to open file.

Reproduces without extensions: Yes
