This exists but just needs to be documented better:
.vscode/settings.json:
{
"linguafranca.generateCodeOnSave": false
}
Ok, is that also exposed somewhere in the GUI?
No. I think VS Code users are probably used to editing .vscode/settings.json
. The config file is usually where I go when I want to change any settings related to an extension, and I'm not even sure where in the GUI one would go for extension-specific settings.
I think that part of what makes VS Code such a big improvement over Eclipse for example is that it does not try to put a GUI on everything.
So is the action item here to document the existence of this setting?
To me, one of the most annoying aspects about the LF VS code plugin is its auto build feature. I see the value of this feature for end users, but as a LF developer I find myself often in a position where I want to invoke lfc manually as I am experimenting with new features in LF and/or the runtime. Because of the auto-build, I find myself waiting a lot. I have to wait until the auto build finishes before I can safely run lfc, and then the compilation also takes longer because the auto-build has overwritten everything and cmake cannot use its caching.
