There is no syntax highlighting in VS Code #2149

Open DeflateAwning opened 3 months ago

DeflateAwning commented 3 months ago

A couple of questions first

What activity failed When I open a SystemVerilog file, there is no highlighting/coloring.

Expectation I was hoping Verible would be my one-stop plugin for Verilog/SystemVerilog development, including syntax highlighting.

What actually happened There is no highlighting.

Note: it's possible that this is actually a feature request and not a bug report; please advise!

I have a repo dedicated to highlighting SystemVerilog syntax in VS Code, which is still under development. However, it is sufficient for most use cases: https://github.com/hankhsu1996/vscode-better-systemverilog-syntax. This might be useful for the project. However, combining static syntax highlighting with semantic analysis yields the best results. I'm wondering if there are any plans for Verible to implement semantic highlighting?
