8766 :: nimsuggest Issue processing ``runnableExamples``

• Clavismax (orginal) [2022-01-03T13:41:09+01:00] view original

  Recently I noticed that in Visual Studio Code, in cooperation with the nim-lang extension of "Saem", the display of runnableExamples does not work. The code-block statement, on the other hand, is processed and displayed correctly.

  Since it is, as I read on several pages, a better way to work with runnableExamples, I would like to change my way of working. But this is not possible at the moment, because my runnableExamples are not displayed in the nim-lang extension and I don`t want to work without Examples in my Docs.

  I have already opened an issue about this at https://github.com/saem/vscode-nim/issues/67.

  But there I am told that it seems to be a problem of nimsuggest, which has to be fixed first.

  Is this really the case? And if so, is anyone taking care of it yet?

  What is the status?

  Looking forward to answer/help

  It is quite likely that it is a nimsuggest issue but just to ensure that I understand you correctly: When you put your mouse over a symbol you would like to see the complete documentation, including the runnable examples?

  Exactly!

  Will such contributions automatically lead to a bugfix or is there more to be done from my side? And if the fix comes. Is this usually a matter of days, weeks or months?

  A proper bug report on nim-lang/nim would be preferred. Bugfixes can take months.
