I have encountered a hard-error when attempting to use the Online editing mode (Online Editing - Rocket MV BASIC

Online Editing - Rocket MV BASIC
Online Editing is an additional method for modifying BASIC program files on the U2 server. With this feature, users can remotely edit BASIC program files on the U2 server instead of having to retrieve or upload files from a repository. However, it is important to note that users cannot simultaneously utilize this mode alongside the traditional editing mode.

While attempting to open an account in the explorer tree, if the account VOC contains a Q-pointer that contains "?" in the name then an error is presented.

No further processing of the VOC is possible and no list of files available for editing is presented.

This is what the VOC item looks like:

Whilst I wonder why such a character might cause the MV Basic extension so much problems, I can understand that the implementation of un-documented constraints might crop-up during the implementation evolution.

What I don't get is why it stops access to all the legitimate code libraries in the account.

Hi, Gregor.

Seems like the "?" in the file name has been converted to "%3F" incorrectly, so that caused issue when VS Code extension parsing the file name. I tested this on my local environment but didn't see the problem.

I will open a support case for this so we can have a WebEx meeting to check more details on your side, thanks.
