angular syntax profile from emmet doesn't work after 1.5.0 update

[AldoMX]

• VSCode Version: 1.5.1
• OS Version: Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

Steps to Reproduce:

1 - Set the angular syntax profile in your settings.json, example:

{
    "emmet.syntaxProfiles": {
        "html": "angular"
    }
}

2 - Create a new HTML File

3 - Try to expand an emmet expression, example:

ul>li*5

3b - Or an angular-specific emmet expression, example:

md-content[layout="column"]>md-button{Save}

I noticed that both versions of VS Code: 1.4.0 and 1.5.1 have the same version of emmet installed (1.3.1).

Hello, @AldoMX,

What do you mean by angular profile? By default Emmet not have angular profile.

I think I'm getting crazy...

Apparently the angular profile never existed although I was pretty confident that it did, and I took it for granted since I had found out undocumented emmet's features in the past, such as the |slim or |jade filters.

Anyway, the "issue" is real, but it will probably be a WONTFIX:

In VS Code <= 1.4.0, when you press tab and the emmet profile is invalid, ex.:

{
    "emmet.syntaxProfiles": {
        "html": "gibberish"
    }
}

It triggers emmet anyway, which results in emmet expanding invalid expressions (but valid in the context of Angular) such as

ng-app

into

<ng-app></ng-app>

Which led me to believe the non-existent angular profile actually existed.

Basically, VS Code 1.5.0 fixed the bug, broke my workflow, and made me learn that I was probably asleep when I found out about the angular profile...

Please accept an apology and the following XKCD comic for this bogus bug report.

Don't worry. Now syntaxProfiles used as fileAssociations, but for Emmet: left side — language Id, right side — Emmet mode or your own syntax profile. You can find the basic modes of Emmet in #9500 (comment).

Please, close this issue if it is resolved.

@AldoMX Emmet abbreviations should work for you in html files without setting any syntax profiles.
Closing this issue as resolved.
Love the xkcd comic :)
