Possible Bug with Switch Statement

[branhama]

Product, version and build: PowerShell Studio 2019 v5.6.159
32 or 64 bit version of product: 64-bit
Operating system: Windows 10 Pro
32 or 64 bit OS: 64-bit

Noticed an issue I believe with Switch statements relating to a $true $false definition.

With the below code Compress-Archive will not be syntax highlighted and tab completions do not function.
*Not Working

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse] [Download] (Untitled.ps1)

1. $test = $true
2.  
3. Switch ($test)
4. {
5.     $true{
6.        
7.     }
8.     $false{
9.         $sample |Compress-Archive -Destinationpath 'C:\test.zip'                   
10.     }
11. }

However, if you place a space after $true and $false within the switch code, completion and highlighting begin to function again.
*Working

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse] [Download] (Untitled.ps1)

1. Switch ($test)
2. {
3.     $true {
4.        
5.     }
6.     $false {
7.         $sample | Compress-Archive -Destinationpath 'C:\test.zip'
8.     }
9. }

Is this on purpose? I did not believe the spacing here should be a requirement. Took me a while to figure out what was going on with my tab completion on this one.

Thank you for reporting this and it is indeed a bug. We are investigating and will keep you updated.

We found the issue and it will be resolved in the next service release. In the meantime, adding the extra space will resolve the issue.

Please try the latest service build of PowerShell Studio (v5.6.160) and let us know if the issue persists.
