[AlphaWong]

The golang package version has been updated

/home/alpha/works/pkg/mod/golang.org/x/tools/gopls@v0.1.7/main.go:20:41: not enough arguments in call to cmd.New
	have (string, string, nil)
	want (string, string, []string, func(*source.Options))

original (v0.1.7)

// https://github.com/golang/tools/blob/gopls/v0.1.7/gopls/main.go#L20
tool.Main(context.Background(), cmd.New("gopls", "", nil), os.Args[1:])

latest

// https://github.com/golang/tools/blob/master/gopls/main.go#L22
tool.Main(ctx, cmd.New("gopls", "", nil, hooks.Options), os.Args[1:])

this line should have a problem as the 0.1.7 and latest branch have breaking change

// https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-go/blob/e936903d648caa40f4bbc7a6d0e28aeb59aedd43/src/goLanguageServer.ts#L402
const defaultLatestVersion = semver.coerce('0.1.7');
const defaultLatestVersionTime = moment('2019-09-18', 'YYYY-MM-DD');
async function shouldUpdateLanguageServer(tool: Tool, path: string, makeProxyCall: boolean): Promise<boolean> {
	// Only support updating gopls for now.
	if (tool.name !== 'gopls') {
		return false;
	}

	// First, run the "gopls version" command and parse its results.
	// If "gopls" is so old that it doesn't have the "gopls version" command,
	// or its version doesn't match our expectations, prompt the user to download.
	const usersVersion = await goplsVersion(path);
	if (!usersVersion) {
		return true;
	}

	// We might have a developer version. Don't make the user update.
	if (usersVersion === '(devel)') {
		return false;
	}

	// Get the latest gopls version.
	let latestVersion = makeProxyCall ? await latestGopls(tool) : defaultLatestVersion;

workaround

# install gopls separately
go get golang.org/x/tools/gopls@v0.1.7

@ramya-rao-a: I believe that #2877 will fix this issue. The problem is that if multiple packages installed depend on different versions of x/tools, the temporary go.mod file that is used to support Go 1.11 may cause conflicts. This shouldn't be much of a problem since gopls will be auto-updated, but it will be an issue for people installing multiple tools at once. Sorry I didn't notice this earlier, I thought the PR had already been merged.

0.11.9 has been published with the fix by @stamblerre in #2877

@AlphaWong Can you share if the fix in the latest version helps?

[AlphaWong]

I check my vscode and find that my current version is 0.11.8
let me upgrade it and check it again

@ramya-rao-a it works. Thx community!
