There is use case in edk2 that we will create dsc.inc and fdf.inc files for platform owner to include certain functions. The format is the same as regular DSC and FDF file. Could you please consider to support them together?

Reference:

• https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/RedfishPkg/RedfishComponents.dsc.inc
• https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/RedfishPkg/Redfish.fdf.inc

Thanks!

Can we make an update for debug marco? Or make it more flexible in user configuration?

Hi - .fdf.inc and .dsc.inc are standards for include files in the same format as .fdf and .dsc, repsectively, in the EDK-II repo, but these files are not currently highlighted in the same way as .fdf and .dsc, respectively. I believe it would be helpful if they were.

E.g. in NetworkPkg (but also multiple other places) we have:

And here is one .fdf.inc file with current .inc highlighting, and what it would ideally look like with .fdf highlighting (just achieved by a temporary rename, here):

Outstanding plugin!

The DSC code outline does not pick up [Components] sections. In particular, [Components.$(DXE_ARCH)] and [Components.$(PEI_ARCH)] are excluded. I mention those particulars just in case the references might be causing the trouble.

Hi @WalonLi

It seems to me that below opcodes in VFR are missing color. Would you please add them if you have chance?

• namevaluevarstore
• orderedlist / endlist
• disableif
• ideqid
• pushthis
• resetbutton / endresetbutton
• formsetguid
• question
• guidop / endguidop
• formmap
• read
• modal
• refreshguid
• datatype

I got above opcodes from this file: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/MdeModulePkg/Universal/DriverSampleDxe/Vfr.vfr

I didn't enable any special gitlens feature.
And I only see the weird git blame when edk2-vscode is enable. And it probably occur since the recent edk2-vscode update.

This won't happened in c files, I only see it in the dsc file, component/libraryclass section.

EDK2 has the included dsc/fdf file naming as xxx.dsc.inc and xxx.fdf.inc.
Such as:
NetworkPkg/Network.dsc.inc
NetworkPkg/Network.fdf.inc

Currently, the syntax highlight for dsc and fdf is great. Pease apply to the dsc.inc fdf.inc if possible. Thanks!

@WalonLi Thank you for the effort!

I am closing this request.

But... there is always a but XD

I was hoping that it can show the name on the top when focus is within the scope of the outline. Take the example below, it shows "..." only, not the "FeaturePcd" because the focus is on the PcdPciBusHotplugDeviceSupport

It only show FeaturePcd when the focus is right on the [FeaturePcd] itself:

Sometimes PCDs in the same section are more than a page and I have to open the side bar then search to check which section this PCD is belong to, or to just scroll pages up and up and up. If it can directly show the section name where the focused line is belong to (on the top) it will help me to save some time. This is my original intention but I didn't make it clearly described.

Hi Walon,

Is it possible to add a feature like other languages did?
In the picture below, it lists all the functions and variables. Can we list the sections of dsc/dec/inf like [PcdFeatureFlag], [Protocols], [Sources], etc. for better navigation. Thanks!

Hello:
The *.dsc.inc file type not support.
May I add it by myself at settings?
or
Could you please add this type?
Thanks!

It seems the words are displayed with same color (brown?) starting from symbol "<" and this situation would disappear if I use ">".
