Issue with Automatic Language Switching

kevin666

I just started using LINQPad8 and encountered an issue, described as follows:

Currently, LINQPad's language is set to C# Expression(s). When I paste C# code that contains the Main function, the language automatically switches to C# Program, which is convenient.
However, at the same time, LINQPad adds an empty Main function at the top of the code, and I have to manually delete it each time, which is inconvenient.

I think that when pasting code into the editor, it should check whether a Main function already exists in the code. If it does, LINQPad should not add an empty Main function again.

To better illustrate the issue, I recorded a dynamic GIF demonstration.

Empty Main function Code:

void Main()
{
}

Test Code:

using System;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Get the operating system version information
        var os = Environment.OSVersion;

        // Output the operating system platform and version number
        Console.WriteLine("Operating System Platform: " + os.Platform);
        Console.WriteLine("Operating System Version: " + os.Version);
        Console.WriteLine("Operating System Version String: " + os.VersionString);

        // Get the service pack information
        Console.WriteLine("Service Pack Version: " + os.ServicePack);
    }
}

Thanks for reporting - this should now be fixed in the latest beta.
