autoclose does not detect open state / do not autoclose quotes when in strings

[irvnriir]

answer

in VSC, Autoclose entities are not related to {new Scope} triggers, but:

	"autoClosingPairs": [
		<<..>>
		{ "open": "\"", "close": "\"", "notIn": ["string"] }
	]

;

issue

VSC 1.41.1 .

it doesn't detect the open/close state

It looks like you have an unclosed quote on the first second line v1=%v:". If you fix that, does it work?

@connor4312 , its same when i try to place 3 ` " `, by one, at open space (all 3 times they get doubled)

[connor4312]

What's the language mode for the opened file? It doesn't look like there's any syntax highlighting, is it getting set correctly?

@irvnriir , Batch, working (plain theme)

[connor4312]

Okay, can you share the contents of the source file from your screenshot so we can try to reproduce it?

bat\..\surroundingPairs also doesn't work

[aeschli]

Good catch!
Can you file a separate issue for the surroundingPairs issue? Please add a code sample (pasted as text, if possible)

[irvnriir]

@aeschli , is there a command, other than "notIn" (blacklist), to specify a whitelist of Scopes here?

p.s. the surroundingPairs issue
