If pdfpc is the only major Vala codebase that uses CMake, perhaps it would be better to encourage they switch to Meson.
Hmm... it looks like [Dino](https://github.com/dino/dino), another very popular (1.5k stars) project, uses CMake too.
@chances most of those projects are dead, save a handful.
@chances well I still have to prioritize support for the things that people are currently using. If and when what you said happens, then CMake will become a higher priority.
It looks like we can ask users to install this LSP plugin, which takes care of 3/4ths of our problem: - https://github.com/gtache/intellij-lsp However, IntelliJ doesn't have a Vala syntax plugin...
@SolarLiner there's no need for a separate IntelliJ extension, except for one that can do syntax highlighting. VLS already works with IntelliJ when the above LSP plugin is installed.

I think we'd want to have VLS only warn you when you have errors that could be resolved by adding the file to the build system. Otherwise this could be...
Yeah, I can't decide if this should be a bug or not. It has its pros and cons. What do you think @benwaffle ?
Makes sense. It seems this would be expensive to avoid from the SymbolExtractor, since this would require searching (in the worst case) the entire document for quotation marks.
