Codepilot is generating incomplete functions #6676

There's very likely a character limit to prevent Copilot from trying to create functions with indefinite length. That said, even if you accept the solution, there's no easy way to convince Copilot to continue building the entire function (it continues line-by-line after that). |

This should be fixed in 1.6.3440 - please try that out and let us know if the problem persists. |

@orph Still having issues with this in 1.6.3440. What I typed (in a fresh TypeScript file): What it synthesized: Copilot outputSynthesizing 10/10 solutions

I know my regard should probably be a feature request by about half way though.. so ill add, history control, the ability to remove all or any piece of. (may help of the development of copilot if such is re-regardable) ((maybe user's involvement could be counter-productive, an option to generate by the database chosen, then such is available(including some regard to your end's own regard to users regard, and some data and/or time frame of updates due to, saves from outliers breaking things.))) |

Ok, removing generated options (keep the ability to undo this (maneuver)) not only for a clean view though if these can be quick diffed(or we can copy paste, no need to over do it).. also. I guess now I could add to; select or remove from the quick diff (could be good for the learning database) (removing errors or unworkable Para-diagrams (flow)) Let's include a save fav's options (have a replace fav also), another good one for the recognition of what is worth or preferred. else I guess this would only be a user side, so no actual need. |

Thought of !!Gold!! - remove generations if they don't have closing brackets, finishing regards (some too many generations fail with such), or similar available... Though with this one, please don't give in to what you were and have been doing... (could work or save well..((generations or complexity and capability could become extinct.. etc.))) |

After ignoring all of the hype for a long time, I finally decide to pay for copilot and try it out. Here is the result. It stops in the middle of some string output and doesn't finish the (very simple) function. Am I doing something wrong? Is this normal?

It's trying to be safe and not leak real IPs/URLs (similar to emails above). I've noticed things similar where it won't generate lines that mention gender... I understand the desire for some higher security, but agreed that it's a bit silly in contexts like these. |

Thanks for the reply. It makes sense. But to not provide a comment, explanation or warning is extraordinarily bad user experience for a commercial product. Especially since all it would take is a couple lines of code to tell the use that there was a problem. Pseudocode: |
