Syntax Checking preferences

• Enable Syntax Checking: Syntax checking is enabled by default. When this option is enabled, the extension displays all or any syntax errors while writing the code.
• Enable Quick Fix: Quick Fix recognizes the usage of methods, classes, and CFC/CFM files in the code and helps generate them. For example, if you type a UDF myFunc() that is not defined in the page or any other page, Quick Fix generates the function. The function call is inserted in the file.
• Display Syntax Errors Only on File Save: If enabled, you can only see the syntax errors after you save the file, not while writing the code.
