Waiting for VS Code to exit

[kornelijepetak]

Hi!

The documentation says the following about ExecuteAsync:

The code above spawns a child process with the configured command line arguments and working directory, and then asynchronously waits for it to exit.

But I'm doing this:

var code = await Cli.Wrap("code")
	.WithArguments(tempFile)
	.ExecuteAsync();

and the code continues (resolves the await) as soon as VS Code is open. It doesn't wait for it to exit (or even close that one file).

Am I using CliWrap wrong?

I jumped the gun. It seems that there's a way to run VS Code without such issues.

code --wait, as per documentation will wait until the file is closed in order to return.

This has nothing to do with CliWrap. Case closed.
