Question 120
A support engineer edits .al files in a text editor and cannot compile or debug the extension. A targeted trial still reproduces the original gap after the team attempted this change: Install the AL Language extension in Visual Studio Code and initialize an AL project. Which repair directly addresses the remaining defect?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Install the AL tooling and reopen the workspace with its valid project and target settings. This directly addresses the remaining defect for the requirement—A support engineer edits .al files in a text editor and cannot compile or debug the extension. It restores the mechanism described here: the supported development tooling provides al syntax, project commands, symbol access, packaging, and debugging integration.
Incorrect Answers
This correction is for the separate condition: A tester's project references an updated System Application API but keeps symbols downloaded from a different environment. It would not directly restore the intended behavior in this situation: A support engineer edits .al files in a text editor and cannot compile or debug the extension. Here, install the al tooling and reopen the workspace with its valid project and target settings, because the supported development tooling provides al syntax, project commands, symbol access, packaging, and debugging integration.
This correction is for the separate condition: A developer struggles to publish related warehouse and finance apps from different folders with inconsistent references. It would not directly restore the intended behavior in this situation: A support engineer edits .al files in a text editor and cannot compile or debug the extension. Here, install the al tooling and reopen the workspace with its valid project and target settings, because the supported development tooling provides al syntax, project commands, symbol access, packaging, and debugging integration.
This correction is for the separate condition: A developer uses a recent language feature in an extension targeted at an older supported on-premises deployment. It would not directly restore the intended behavior in this situation: A support engineer edits .al files in a text editor and cannot compile or debug the extension. Here, install the al tooling and reopen the workspace with its valid project and target settings, because the supported development tooling provides al syntax, project commands, symbol access, packaging, and debugging integration.
