visual studio code extension needs references/definitions

[seanyoung]

The visual studio code extension gives compiler diagnostics (i.e. compiler warnings and errors). For functions, variables, and all other types (events, contracts, etc) it should be able to:

• Go to definition
• Go to type definition
• Find references
• Find all references
• Rename (and rename all the references)

@Web3Foundation can you please approve @bshevchenko , thank you.

[bshevchenko]

@Web3Foundation @seanyoung got it 👌🏻

[seanyoung]

@bshevchenko have you made any progress on this bounty?

[littlezigy]

Hello Is this bounty still open?

[seanyoung]

@littlezigy noone is working on this so the bounty is still available. If you would like to work on it, please do. While you are working on it apply on the gitcoin page too, thanks.

[littlezigy]

Nice! I'll be awaiting your approval.

[seanyoung]

Just before we approve you - what's the plan for this work? Do you have any rust experience?

[littlezigy]

I have only a little experience with rust, but I have a lot of experience with Go. However, I pick up languages very fast.

I plan to add the following functionality described in the project description

• Go to definition
• Find (all) references
• Rename (all) references

I will add tests for the new features to (the test folder). I assume this is the extension directory: https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/solang/tree/main/vscode

The language server is written in rust, not typescript: https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/solang/blob/main/src/bin/languageserver/mod.rs

@Web3Foundation can you please approve @littlezigy, thank you.

[littlezigy]

Ah okay. Thanks

Hi @seanyoung. Is it okay if I edit the extension so it uses docker solang if it is available?

[seanyoung]

Hi @seanyoung. Is it okay if I edit the extension so it uses docker solang if it is available?

Why would you want it to use docker? This introduces another dependency, which really needs justification.

Hi @seanyoung. Is it okay if I edit the extension so it uses docker solang if it is available?

The binary doesn't work on my computer (Ubuntu 18.04) so I'm using docker. The extension keeps downloading and calling the binary package. I still plan to keep it working this way, but I want to add a check for the docker image then have the extension use that if the user sets that in the extension settings.

Hi @seanyoung. Is it okay if I edit the extension so it uses docker solang if it is available?

I won't be doing this anymore. I figured out a way to handle this.

[littlezigy]

@Web3Foundation could you approve me?

[seanyoung]

@Web3Foundation please can you approve @darkdrag00n, they have done a lot of work already, see https://github.com/hyperledger/solang/pull/1116 thank you
