Yet Eclipse and IntelliJ IDEA (and most likely a lot of other IDE's) successfully use AST's for their code editor. The syntax will only be broken locally, so it's not that hard to recover.
- scotty79 11y agoI tried Eclipse many times over last decade. Always used for few weeks before code highlighting and completion drove me insane due to multiple crashes, hangups and slowdowns. Trouble with elaborate 'correct' solutions starts when you need another thing. I don't think support in Eclipse for .cjsx or PureScript or whatever is coming soon. I won't wait 10 years till they get it 'right'. I'll use Atom to get the 95% right in few months.
- EdiX 11y agoI said it's very hard not that it's impossible. If you think it's easy write a parser with recovery for every language Atom supports.
