can't navigate javascript with manual namespaces #7632

Closed

Description

I have large legacy codebase with "manual" style namespacing like this:

//namespaces
var my = my || {};
my.app = my.app || {};

and "classes" declared like this:

my.app.Application` = (function () {
var Application = function () {
...
};
return Application;
})();

I've tried several combinations of jsconfig.json parameters and none allow me to navigate this style of code. Should this work?

  • VSCode Version: 0.10.11, 0.10.12-insider
  • OS Version: OSX 10.11.3

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open attached project or github repo https://github.com/chadbr/vscodeTestJS

vscodeTestJS.zip

  1. Open folder in vscode
  2. open src/app/application.js
  3. try to go to declaration of my.app.SomeView() -- nothing happens.
