Posted on by anandb313@gmail.com 200

This is about 365 nav visual studio code. If i try to click the Go to definition in a customized page in visual studio code, it comes up with error " No definition found for page". Then i checked the extension management to download the source code but the download source code is  disabled to click. However the extension is published. I think i have problem in the package. Can anyone suggest me how to overcome this? Thanks in advance!

    Hi

    You can always use Go to Definition on Dynamics 365 Business Central code. However, if you want to use it on other extensions, the extension package which is now referenced, when originally published, must have the showMyCode property set to true

    also, I recommend having a look on below link it will help you:

    Hi

    thaks alot for your feedback,

    you can review below example added on this link

    docs.microsoft.com/.../devenv-al-code-navigation

    also for  more information about code navigation in Visual Studio Code, see the below link

    code.visualstudio.com/.../editingevolved

    Transitive references can only be resolved if the symbol app that defines the reference is a dependency on the project that contains the entry point for the Go to Definition symbol. For example, assume that you are in HelloWorld.al and want to Go to Definition on the Car table defined in the Car.app which is a dependency on your app. Then navigation will open the CarTable.dal preview file. And assume that from here you want to Go to Definition on CarDistributor table defined in the CarDistributor.app which is a dependency on Car.app, but not a dependency on the HelloWorld.app. In this case the source code Go to Definition will not work.
