Semantic highlighting for expressions

Open inosik opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

VSCode 1.44 allows language servers to provide semantic highlighting. It would be nice if this extension did this as well for things like Conditions or other expressions. See for example DeltaXML/vscode-xslt-tokenizer, which does this for XSLT.

Cool idea - we do some language server stuff for MSBuild expressions if the file’s language is MSBuild (rather than XML) but I think we’d need to use a newer version of the LSP framework to add support for newer LSP features. May not be trivial to implement but I’ll look into it and see what’s involved :)
