Fortran Symbols

[kookma]

Please complete the Fortran Symbols outlining!
There are open code in the net can be useful for this regards like Code::Blocks.

What do you mean by Fortran Symbols outline, something like this?

[kookma]

That's a tree of Fortran symbols e.g variable, user defined type, class, subroutines, functions, ...
Something similar to the pic you showed!

@pedro-ricardo does this feature sound attractive to you?

[pedro-ricardo]

It sure does...
As a former Kate editor user, I prefer the static symbol list on a separated tab then the drop-down default of VSCode (for a large amount of symbols it gets hard to use and every time you access the drop-down it comes back to the fist symbol).
To add this feature would require something like this tutorial, right?

[pedro-ricardo]

But doing that in the way VSCode let extensions do it, would sacrifice the explorer tab ... and i'm not sure if that is a good idea. Maybe we should wait for Microsoft to let us create a whole new tab before adding this.

@krvajal Just found out that this is not our problem ... This is a very popular feature request in VSCode repo #5605. When they implement this, the symbol-list will be on a separate tab already.

[pedro-ricardo]

Pretty sure we can close this now... It is a new feature of VSCode, on preview but already working with our symbols. It is called outline.

[kookma]

This is great! It seems now, we can have symbol outline.

Cheers

@kookma It is that what you were looking for? If yes, could you close this issue?

[kookma]

Sure!
