ANSI-C quoting error

[patrick-melo]

When I pasted the code below into the editor, I see an error. It appears that the editor doesn't support ANSI-C Quoting (https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/ANSI_002dC-Quoting.html#ANSI_002dC-Quoting).

Code

#!/bin/bash
main() {
     text=$'"can\'t"'
     echo $text 
}
main

Error

Multiple markers at this line

• This curly brace is not closed. So function 'main' is not valid.
• It seems this opening bracket is missing a closing one.

Also, when I start typing the main function, it replaces my curly braces with square brackets. Is this related to the editor as well? Does it already have a ticket?

I can confirm, with Version 2.5.0 on eclipse 2020-12 I got the same problem about curly braces

Output is:
