August 3, 2021

We’re pleased to announce the availability of Rocket® MV BASIC for Visual Studio Code (VS Code) v1.1.2

Rocket MV BASIC for VS Code offers features to help your developers modernize, simplify, and work more productively.

We are developing and releasing MV BASIC for VS Code (MVVS) at regular intervals to provide more frequent enhancements and fixes.

Version 1.1.2 includes editing feature enhancements

  • Code Lens (New) allows you to review your code and find references to variables, functions, or subroutines without leaving the editor.
  • Signature Help has been enhanced to automatically update the parameter lists of user-defined functions when editing the BASIC files that contain those functions.
  • Other Enhancements:
    • Three new statements have been added to Code Folding to further improve code readability for large blocks of code: WHILE and UNTIL clauses in loops as well as the LOCK statement. The large code block surrounded by these statements can be folded into one line so that users can quickly go through the whole program.
    • All variables declared in an INCLUDE file are now referenced without error

In addition to these enhancements MVVS 1.1.2 includes 38 bug fixes.

For more information on planned MVVS release content please join our quarterly roadmap webinars or view the MVVS roadmap on the Rocket Forum.

*Full diagnostic support will be added to MVVS over a series of releases.
