Incorrect YAML highlighting after value with two opening curly braces

[cmeury]

monaco-editor version: VSCode 1.21.1
OS: macOS High Sierra 10.13.3

This minimal YAML file:

key1: highlighted
key2: "{{"
key3: not-highlighted

is highlighted incorrectly, while it looks like valid YAML.

@cmeury It looks okay on the website to me.

Looks like it. Is there a large difference in progress between VSCode and the monaco-editor component? How do I find out what version of the editor my VSCode installation uses?

[rcjsuen]

@cmeury Well, the reality is that VS Code uses a TextMate grammar whereas Monaco uses Monarch tokens so they're not really the same thing.

[rcjsuen]

@cmeury I think you should open a bug in the Microsoft/vscode repository.

[rcjsuen]

@cmeury Actually, Martin already opened a bug about your exact problem! See textmate/yaml.tmbundle#18!

Thanks for the background and pointing me in the right direction @rcjsuen, much appreciated. Closing this one.
