XML parser: error reporting in attribute values

AlterNET Studio Support
1

While playing with custom XML code completion, I noticed a place where there seems to be missing syntax error reporting in the AlterNET parser.

When not closing the attribute value, I observe this result:

Visual Studio reports an error:

VS seems to be correct - the “<” char is forbidden: xml serialization - Which characters are Invalid (unless encoded) in an XML attribute? - Stack Overflow

Don’t know whether this would also have an influence on syntax highlighting. The VS result looks better :wink:

Hi Wolfgang,

We have just released an update via NuGet (version 9.1.2), where this issue should be addressed.

Please let me know if it works as you expect.

Kind regards,

Thanks, perfect! I can confirm that the error is reported now.

By the way: you have a typo in the newly introduced localization field “StringConsts.InvalidCharatcerInAttributeValues” :wink:

Best regards
