Not all pragmas showing in pragma view

bgrommes

On Windows I have a solution with 2 projects in which I am developing a new class. That class hasn't been referenced or called from anywhere in the code base yet. All the pragmas (all TODO) in the class are not showing in Pragma view. The only pragma showing up is the only one in the code base that's not in the class I'm working on. The only thing I can think of that's different is that class IS called from several places in the codebase.

Here are screen shots of a search for Pragma vs what the Pragma pane is showing. I did go ahead & reference the new class in a test program but that didn't change anything. I also stopped / restarted Objo.

Thanks for reporting this. I’ve found and fixed the problem.

The Pragma view collects its entries while parsing the project. If a source file contained a syntax error, Studio was discarding every pragma it had already recognised in that file. That’s why the pragma in MutableString appeared while both pragmas in TextFileReader were missing. Whether the class was referenced elsewhere made no difference.

Studio will now preserve valid pragmas from a file even when other code in that file cannot yet be parsed. This is especially important while a class is still being developed.

The Pragma Unused args result will continue to be omitted intentionally because Unused is a compiler directive rather than a user-facing annotation.

The fix has been completed and will be included in the next release. Thanks again for the clear screenshots, they made the pattern much easier to identify.

Garry Lol -- ironically the reason the new class didn't compile:

Pargma TODO "Implement"

Thanks for fixing this.
