Show build progress in activity bar #694

Closed ahoppen closed 3 months ago

ahoppen commented 6 months ago

Currently, when building, VS Code only shows Building… as an activity indicator (or whatever the thing in the bottom bar is called). It would be nice if it would show the current build progress as it’s output from swift build (e.g. Building 6/9)

That's not easy. Builds are triggered by VSCode tasks and I have no access to stdout from a VSCode task.

The VSCode API allows for custom execution of tasks. I can take a look to see how much extra work that would be.

I'd love to run with this issue
