Syntax error false positive for array indexes that are arithmetic expressions with spaces

[akwala]

Code editor

Codium (VS Code)

Platform

Linux/Ubuntu

Version

4.4.0

What steps will reproduce the bug?

Code example:

value=array[i - 2]

This is flagged as a syntax error:

Syntax error: "]" missing

Changing the code as follows gets rid of the error:

value=array[i-2]

With this modified code, AFAICT, shell-format (shfmt) inserts the spaces around the minus. It is not a syntax error to have those spaces.

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

Always.

What is the expected behavior?

This should not be flagged as a syntax error.

What do you see instead?

Syntax error: "]" missing

Thanks for reporting this. This should be fixed in the latest language server 4.6.2 and in the vscode extension 1.33.

Do let us know if you have other issues or ideas for future improvements. :)
