Decimals of 0 show as empty in popup attributes for fields

[bobcozzi]

When I cursor over a field in RPG IV, it shows me the fields attributes, but when zoned and probably decimal (aka Packed) are shown with a decimal length of 0, the 0 is not show so you see:
Sales zoned(2:)
should be
Sales zoned(2:0)

Hey @bobcozzi , where is the PHFPC definition coming from?

Using the following code when I try hovering over PHFPC, PHFPC2 or PHFPC3 it shows me exactly how I've defined it.

        dcl-s PHFPC zoned(2:);
        dcl-s PHFPC2 zoned(2:0);
        dcl-s PHFPC3 zoned(2);

        FPCT = PHFPC;
        FPCT = PHFPC2;
        FPCT = PHFPC3;

I' would need to see the original fixed-format code. ZONED(2:0) is odd since you also have zoned(2:0) in the same section. Assuming that's what you're talking about--the RPG IV to RPG IV Free format conversion extension? If you're talking about the Reference database that shows up the information on hover, yes that code doesn't handle zero decimal positions in some edge cases. I didn't write that but I looked at the code in debug and that's what I've found. Please clarify the specific issue.

Hi @bobcozzi, sorry if I wasn't clear. My examples were illustrating how the vscode-rpgle extension works with different zoned definitions and hover text. It wasn't related to your conversion extension. I was trying to understand the issue you logged back in August to see if I could help and possibly fix the problem. I though it would be helpful to see how the PHFPC field was defined.

Got it. Thanks. If I get around to it, I may look at it while debugging my RPGIV2FREE extension and see what's going on.
