Intellisense Should Identify Location of DBL-E-NFND With "Red Squiggly"


Delivered

Consider the following invalid Traditional Synergy Application
 

namespace MyNameSpace
	structure MyStructure
		MyField	,a1
	endstructure
endnamespace


main
proc
	begin
		data localStruc	,MyStructure
		localStruc.MyFakeField = ""
	end
endmain

In addition to having the error Intellisense in TSVS should be improved to properly identify the portion of code that is incorrect as seen in this mock up:

Doing so would bring feature parity with C# and help developers more quickly identify programming errors.

FYI, you do see red squiggles in Solution Explorer at both the project and file level, but you have to hover over it to see the errors and lines (it's basically the same as what is displayed in the Error List tab). But it would be nice if that was reflected in the editor as Ace suggests!

I'm pleased to announce that this feature is coming soon. The initial version will not narrow the scope down to the exact term on the line, but you will be able to differentiate errors and warnings at a glance.
