ECL IDE Compiler error detail

[chatst01]

If the below sample code is used, when run via ECL IDE the output Error helpfully includes a pointer to the issue ("Error: Floating point index used. Was an index range intended instead? (2, 17), 1052, )

When the same is tried with the VSC extension, the same information isn't available

myString := 'Test';
OUTPUT(myString[1.2]);

Looks like this might be an eclcc issue (as vscode does syntax check locally), see: https://track.hpccsystems.com/browse/HPCC-27847

Thanks Gordon - will watch the HPCC ticket for updates
