Custom modules not loaded in my path

[ppasquet]

I have two modules in two separate files:

A.jl

module A

struct Foo
    bar::Integer
end

function create()::Foo
    Foo(1)
end

end

B.jl

module B

using ..A

function test()::Integer
    return -1
end

A.create()
test()

end

In the Julia REPL, I can include("A.jl") and then include("B.jl") and it works.

However, VS Code doesn't add the content of A.jl in the path. For instance, in B.jl I can't jump to the definition of A.create() and nothing happens when I hover it (whereas I can jump to the definition of / hover test(), which is defined in the same file / module).

So there is nothing linking these files together? I don't think that is expected to work then.

@fredrikekre You're right - it works when I add include("A.jl") just before using ..A. But then that messes up my workflow because I will have some redundant include(...) across my project.

You could probably add a third file that includes both A and B, and I think (not entirely sure, though) the LS should at that point understand the link.

I'm closing for now, as this is kind of by design. If my suggestion doesn't work, please reopen!
