Combination of Docstring and empty line in function breaks sending code to REPL (IndentationError)

[thunfischtoast]

Type: Bug

Behaviour

When sending a function to the built-in REPL using Shift+Enter the combination of a Docstring under the function header and a empty line will result in an IndentationError: unexpected indent.

The empty line is automatically created by auto-formatters like black or ruff.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Creata a new *.py file.

2. Add this function:

def some_function():
    """Test"""

    print("Hello World")

3. Select the code and press Shift+Enter.

Diagnostic data

Output for Python in the Output panel (View→Output, change the drop-down the upper-right of the Output panel to Python)

Python 3.10.8 (tags/v3.10.8:aaaf517, Oct 11 2022, 16:50:30) [MSC v.1933 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> def some_function():

... 
>>>     print("Hello World")       
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    print("Hello World")
IndentationError: unexpected indent
>>>

Using ipython-REPL it works.

[kitman1250]

I've been getting very similar issues. "Glad" to see I'm not the only one. #24069

[adamrickayzenanvil]

I am getting this as well, preventing me from doing any work. I've tried everything I can think of including downgrading, rebinding keys, uninstalling etc

[thunfischtoast]

I downgraded the extension version to v2024.12.3 where the problem was not present. Updating to v2024.14.0 reintroduces it.

Hi folks, thanks for filing this issue - Looks like its a dup with #24069 Lets track it in one place
