Outline View References or Peek References

[thomprl]

One thing that really holds me back on using VSCode is some of the limitations on the outline view. When looking at large programs it’s very helpful to see the lines a variable is used on and which lines are setting the variable to a new value. This allows you to jump to that code quickly and know where to set breakpoints. This may not be possible in VSCode. But I’m RDi where each of the lines that have an M beside them in the screen shot the variable is being changed. I find the peek a little cumbersome to use. I know VSCode can’t be RDi though and maybe I’m missing something because I’m not a daily user of VSCode.

@sebjulliand @worksofliam - Hey guys, I've often thought this same thing, but never got around to starting a discussion. Can this be done? Thanks @thomprl for starting the conversation!

Just wondering if this is on the radar for anytime in the future?

Hi there,

I finaly got the Outline to work after deactivating the IceBreak RPG Add On in VS Code and activate the RPG Language Add On. Maybe this is an important hint for other that have the same problem.

BUT

is this really everything we can use in Code4i as the Outline?

As @thomprl already mentioned is that the outline is a very important feature at least in existing, monolithic RPG programs. Doesn't matter if column based, full free or total free. thousands of lines of (unknown) code is not easy to understand and the outline feature in RDi is for me the best benefit of that tool.

So is there a plan to enhance it or can we enhance it somehow? I have multiple Developers in my Team who should be able to do it but I don't want to spend time into it, if there is already someone else working on it.
So a quick feed back would be very helpful.

Many thanks for the great work on the multiple add ons and go on!

Kind regards
Markus
