User get notified when the configuration file has problem.

Maybe InfoBar or Error List?

We really like this idea!

  • This should likely be built in a way that can be extended to help surface other info/errors to developers.
  • At a minimum, we should be able to detect and warn about bad configurations based on JSON parsing.
  • Ideally, we define a JSON schema to support more robust error handling.
  • Open questions:
    • How do we best convey info/errors to developers? e.g., info bar, warnings/info in error pane, squigglies underneath configuration in Solution Explorer
    • How do other extensions handle this?
