VSCode treating javascript code almost as plain text

nmaxcom commented 5 years ago

Issue Type: Bug

I've been having this issue lately. I will get curious about source online, and I copy&paste it on VSCode to have a better and improved look. But it's just not happening.

Syntax highlighting? Yes.
Reformat with Prettier works some times
Highlight matches of the word with the caret? Fewer times (and I think only if I temporarily save the file on disk)
Any form of parsing or static analysis? Nope

As an example. I pasted a code about 30k LOC human formatted with no issues. Select Language Mode: JS (which it is). Then I want to go to the definition of a function, so I CMD+Click: nothing. With right click nothing again:

I manually search for it and.. ta-dá:

I don't know what is going on. How to fix this?

Please share some example code that demonstrates this problem

Closing as we need a complete code example (as text) to investigate this

I don't remember where I got that file. I thought of recording a video with jQuery 3.3.1 from the cdn and then another js file (90k LOC) from Cloud9.

I uploaded it to Youtube, but it's unlisted: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OstVqRnzHKg

It used to go flawlessly doing things like that, but I don't know when or why it changed.
