  • 1.  Visual Studio Code Language Extension For MapBasic

    Posted 10 days ago

    Good afternoon all,

    I have developed a language extension for MapBasic in Visual Studio Code so that it may be used as a development environment for MapBasic applications. My goal was to at the very least reach feature parity with the Notepad++ setup I found on here which I believe I have achieved, plus I have included snippets for block declarations, and you get built in theming as the extension supports VS Code themes.

    You can download the extension through the VS Code marketplace (MapBasic - Visual Studio Marketplace) or by searching for MapBasic in the in-app extensions marketplace. I also have a set of scripts I developed to compile and run MapBasic applications through VS Code using tasks that I can provide if there is any interest.

    I hope this is of some help to you all and let me know if you run into any issues.

    Hi Jeremy,

    Thanks very much for doing this and making it available.  I have installed this and will hopefully get a chance to give it a go - when I am not so busy (it might happen one day!)
