Stack overflow resolving a promise returned by the VS Code API

[PEZ]

Hi! Thanks for providing Promesa! I totally love it. ♥️

When investigating an issue on Joyride, I noticed that with Promesa versions later than 10.0.594 this function throws an error about exceeding the stack size:

(defn say-clipboard-content! []
  (p/let [; text (.then (vscode/env.clipboard.readText) identity) ; works fine
          text (vscode/env.clipboard.readText) ; crashes
          ]
    (vscode/window.showInformationMessage (str "clipboard contains: " text))))

As I don't know any other promise that encounters the error, I created a tiny VS Code extension to reproduce: https://github.com/PEZ/promesa-stack-overflow

Let me know if I can help with debugging in any way.

My wild guess would be that this issue is introduced in

In this version, one of the problems that existed since the birth of this library has been corrected, related to the fact that the default implementation of js/Promise makes it impossible to nest promises.

11.0.664

Possibly the VSCode API returns a nested promise and promesa somehow gets stuck in a loop because of this? Again, just a guess..

Thanks for the detailed report and repo repo, I will try to look on it ASAP

Good news, the issue is already fixed on master
I have planning releasing a first RC this week but I can't promise nothing because i have a pretty busy days

Great! I should have tried that! I could confirm with the repro project, which has been updated to say as much.

Out of curiosity, which commit was the fix?
