Breadcrumb Bar Not Detecting Python Functions

[kd7vrc]

The breadcrumb bar works intermittently. It sometimes does not detect functions in my .py code (complete and valid). When I click through the code, it doesn't show the function my cursor is currently in. I haven't detected a pattern when it does or does not work to reproduce the issue.

Please could you provide the following information:

• Steps to reproduce (sample repo)
• Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda)
• Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | ...)
• Are you using the new experimental Language server or still using Jedi
  If you don't know, please could you check if the following setting is enabled in your settings.json file (user and workspace settings)

"python.jediEnabled": false

[kd7vrc]

The problem is intermittent, and I have not detected a pattern that allows me to describe steps that will reliably reproduce the issue.
My python version is 3.6.4 Anaconda 64 bit.
I haven't configured any special environments. I suppose I'm using conda, but I'm not sure.
I have "python.jediEnabled": false, but I don't remember intentionally setting that. I also have what appears to be an invalid setting "[python]": {}

@kd7vrc if you installed IntelliCode then it would have flipped on the language server.

If you look down in the status bar it will tell you what Python interpreter you are using (and thus if you are using Anaconda).

The [python]: {} is totally valid; that just means you have no settings that are scoped to only when you are editing Python code.

[kd7vrc]

My python interpreter is Anaconda 5.1.0

[brettcannon]

Can you verify this, @DonJayamanne ?

[kd7vrc]

I may have found a pattern. I noticed it didn't work when the status bar at the bottom said "Analyzing Workspace...", but when it was finished, it worked fine. "Analyzing Workspace" can sometimes take a long time to complete.

@kd7vrc thanks for the update. I'm going to close this then as we are tracking the fact analysis seems to hang in microsoft/python-language-server#69 .
