This SAS Extension for Visual Studio Code provides support for the SAS language, including features such as SAS syntax highlighting, code completion, hover help, code folding, outline, SAS code snippets and run SAS code.
When running the built in "Run sas file" task, or setting up a custom "Run sas file" task with an empty "file" parameter, the task always submits the entire active editor. This contradicts what is in the documentation here. It is important for custom tasks to respect code selection, otherwise custom preambles/postambles can only be applied to entire SAS files.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Open a new editor window, set SAS language and enter:
%put hello 1;
%put hello 2;
Highlight only the second line
Open the command palette, choose run task, and "Run sas file." The selection is ignored and both %put statements are submitted.
