fixes #53723
With the latest TextMate changes, grammars are now created asynchronously (due to the async loading of the grammar files and async creation of the textmate engine).
In VSCode, TMSyntax listens on
modeService.onDidCreateMode
, then creates the tokenization support and registers it with the TokenizationRegistry.Before that happened in sync. Users (such as the markdownRenderer for the hover) could trigger a mode creation and after that directly access the TokenizationRegistry for the tokenizationSupport.
Now the tokenizationSupport is created asynchronously.
Here's a pragmatic fix where the TokenizationRegistry can return a promise of a tokenizationSupport, and syntax providers can register a tokenizationSupport promise.
The existing sync access (and reacting to change events) is also still supported.
@alexandrudima Let me know if that change is ok for you. I tried to not boil the ocean, but the whole area could need some refactorings, such as decoupling of the initialization of the TokenizationRegistry from the mode service.
