Description
Issue Type: Bug
Hello!
I haven't found great documentation for the tokenColors.scope property. The only syntax documentation about scope selectors I've been able to find is the textmate "specification", so it's possible this is just a documentation/user issue and not a bug:
I'd like to highlight function names entity.name.function and exclude function calls. Most languages I tested (c, c++, js, ts) doesn't seem to differ between theese (python does) but seems to add a additional scope called meta.function-call to distinguish.
Sample code (from doom) that I'm testing highlight with:
static void derror(char* msg)
{
fprintf(stderr, "\nwadread error: %s\n", msg);
exit(-1);
}
And just like the textmate documentation (13.3 Excluding Elements) says I try to exclude function calls from functions but the whole exclude pattern seems to be picked up as a identifier.
{
"tokenColors": [
{
"name": "Global definitions",
"scope":
[
"entity.name.function - meta.function-call"
, "entity.name.scope-resolution.function.definition"
, "entity.global"
],
"settings": {
"foreground": "#6c71c4"
}
}
]
}
So I guess this is a bug, if not:
- where can I find better documentation more suitable for vs code and
- how should I exclude one, or more, scopes?
