説明

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

  • VS Code Version: 1.105.1
  • OS Version: Arch Linux

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Create a file with one or more tilde ("~") character(s) in its name
  2. In the EXPLORER view navigate to that file
  3. Open TERMINAL tab
  4. Drag and drop the file with tilde in its name from the EXPLORER to the TERMINAL

Expected behavior: File path should appear copied into the terminal

Actual behavior: Tilde character(s) gets silently dropped in the copied/pasted path. This results into an invalid path pointing to a non-existent file.

EDIT.

Tilde turns out to be not the only character that gets silently dropped this way. This issue is reproducible whenever at least one of the following characters is present in the file name:

~ - Tilde
` - Backtick
! - Exclamation
# - Hash / Number Sign
$ - Dollar Sign
^ - Caret or Circumflex
& - Ampersand
* - Asterisk
| - Vertical Bar or Pipe
; - Semicolon
< - Less-Than Sign
> - Greater-Than Sign

調査方針
Investigate the drag and drop event handling in the terminal extension (likely in src/vs/workbench/contrib/terminal/). Look for how file paths are constructed from dropped items. The issue indicates that certain characters are stripped; examine the code that processes the dropped file path for shell escaping. Check for any sanitization or encoding that might remove these characters. Consider testing with the characters listed in the issue to reproduce the behavior.
