IBM i Output option is not in the list of options on the Output panel

[Markj0616]

In documentation and videos, there is an option on the Output panel to display the spool files when a program is compiled through VS Code. I cannot find this option. I've selected all of the other IBM i options in hopes that the name just changed, but none of them displays my compile listing. Is there another extension that i need to install or something?

There has been a change in the way actions are run since videos were made.
Actions output are now found under the Terminal tab. When an action is done, a notification will also appear to ask if you want to open and display the output.

I guess there is something here that is linked to my issue with the compile process. The CRTBNDRPG command isn't creating objects on my IBM i even if they pass the compile (will compile on the 5250 screen, but not from VS Code. This is what i get when i open the output for my compile

Please share the contents of your Code for IBM i output channel after the list doesn't appear.

Yes, we removed the 'IBM i Output channel' in place of two things:

• The Terminals tab will show the compile listing post build
• You will see a button to 'open output' post complication
