This extension breaks the official C/C++ extension

[0tii]

It has taken me frustrated hours of figuring out that for some reason this extension causes the language server of the Microsoft C/C++ extension to fail on refactor by constantly re-invoking Find all references and thus canceling workspace parsing before it can finish over and over again.

More information can be found in this issue over at their repository.

Edit:

After looking at your implementation, i believe this to be the culprit:

Hi! That sounds weird, the extension shouldn't keep calling the symbols provider. Regarding that issue I've just now released a fix regarding another symbol issue, you might want to try the new version just released (v2.6.7)

If it still doesn't work, you can try disabling the symbol functionality, by adding this to the settings.json:

"color-picker-universal.ignoreVariableName": false

If nothing works, the extension might be throwing an error, which should be shown in the debug console.

I will close the issue for now, let me know if it persists
