A user typically expects that the first selection would be the query that they are comparing _from_ and the second query is being compared _to_. This commit ensures that something like this expectation will always hold. So, when there are two queries selected, the first one selected will always be _from_ and appear on the left side of the compare view. The one selected later will be _to_ and appear on the right. There is a corner case when there are 3 or more selected queries and a user *unselects* a query. We do not track the selection order of the remaining two queries.
CodeQL for Visual Studio Code
This project is an extension for Visual Studio Code that adds rich language support for CodeQL. It's used to find problems in code bases using CodeQL. It's written primarily in TypeScript.
The extension is released. You can download it from the Visual Studio Marketplace.
To see what has changed in the last few versions of the extension, see the Changelog.
Features
- Enables you to use CodeQL to query databases and discover problems in codebases.
- Shows the flow of data through the results of path queries, which is essential for triaging security results.
- Provides an easy way to run queries from the large, open source repository of CodeQL security queries.
- Adds IntelliSense to support you writing and editing your own CodeQL query and library files.
Project goals and scope
This project will track new feature development in CodeQL and, whenever appropriate, bring that functionality to the Visual Studio Code experience.
