Enable error highlighting syntax toggle on/off

[sashaburchuk]

There are certain aspects of code that are experimental that the VSCode Editor doesn't recorgnize. It would be useful to easily be able to toggle error highlighting on/off.

@sashaburchuk Can you provide a little more detail? Are you talking about a programming language and if which one?

I'm working in Typescript, and text editors seem to have a particularly hard time analyzing @autoBind. I know that autobind is working because I haven't had to change scope, but everything is still underlined.

I did try going in to the settings.json file in Application Support and changing

"javascript.validate.syntaxValidation": to false.

That didn't help.

Here's a screenshot so you can see what I'm seeing.

@sashaburchuk which version of TS are you using. You can point VSCode to use the latest TS server by using the typescript.tsdk setting. See https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v0_8_0 for details regarding the setting

Hi @dbaeumer. I'm using version ^1.6.2. I'm a bit wary of changing the typescript.tsdk setting because this code is being used in production.

Is there any other way to disable validation? I also tried adding "javascript.validate.enable": false to settings.json without any luck.

@sashaburchuk can you run tsc --version to see which version you are actually using ^1.6.2 will for example install the current 1.7.3 version

@dbaeumer I'm using 1.7.3 now, and the issue seems to be resolved with this version of Typescript.

Error reporting can now be disabled using javascript.validate.enable and typescript.validate.enable.
