Description

@Rainnova

Please include the following with each issue:

1. Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

Although it can be installed, no programming behavior of AL extension works in VS Code for Linux on ARM64 architecture.
AL extension works with VS Code for Windows on ARM, i think, due to the ARM emulation layer of Windows, which Linux does not have.

2. To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

(1) Install VS Code on any Linux distribution of arm64/aarch64 architecture.
(2) Install AL extension on the VS Code.
(3) With new or existing workspace, create a simple .AL object file.
(4) No behavior of AL extension works. Cannot load workspace; cannot compile/publish, etc.

  1. Go to '...'
AL code snippet that demonstrates the issue or a link to a code repository the developers can easily pull down to recreate the issue locally.

Note: Because the developers need to copy and paste the code snippet, including a code snippet as a media file (i.e. .gif) is not sufficient.

3. Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

4. Actual behavior
A clear and concise description of what happened accompanied by images, animations, or a link to a video showing the issue occurring

5. Versions:

  • AL Language: 17.0.2273547
