vscode.workspace.fs.stat(): sockets identified as "regular" files. #84524
Description
VSCode Version: 1.40.0
OS: linux
(working on an extension remotely over SSH; haven't tried local)
If you call vscode.workspace.fs.stat() on a socket "file", the resulting FileStat.type is FileType.File. Isn't that meant to indicate a "regular" file? Instead I would expect a socket to be identified as FileType.Unknown.
To create a socket:
async function createSocket(filename: string): Promise<net.Server> {
const filename = '/tmp/foo.sock';
const server = net.createServer();
await new Promise(resolve => srv.listen(filename, 0, resolve));
return server;
}Note that this also applies to vscode.workspace.fs.readDirectory().
