    ]

main.lua

json = require("json")

print("====== before encode")
local sRet = json.encode({a = 1})
print("====== encode result:", sRet)
print("====== after encode")

local iCount = 1
timer.performWithDelay(1000, function()
    print(iCount)
    iCount = iCount + 1
end, -1)

Try putting this at the top of main.lua

io.output():setvbuf("no") 

Probably won’t help, but just in case.

You’re saying you get no messages at all? Not even the start up copyright statement?

I found a strange problem when I output a string containing “{”, the output does not show. And any subsequent output is not shown. But when I closed the program, the hidden logs all showed up.

main.lua

io.output():setvbuf("no") 

print("== before")
print("{")
print("== before")

it just print == before

when i close the program,all the log are show…

I was curious, do you only use VScode to develop on Solar2D? what extensions do you use?

[bgmadclown]

Are you using Solar2d-companion?
