Regular Expression inside Array break syntax highlighting

[ylazy]

Hi!

All lines below this line will not be syntax highlighted:

private var test:Array = [1, /(')/];

I don't know whether it's an as3mxml issue or VSCode issue.

Interesting, GitHub has the same issue:

private var test:Array = [1, /(')/];
private var foo:String = "bar"; // this line is not syntax highlighted

Workaround: replacing [] with new Array() resolve the problem in VSCode

private var test:Array = new Array(1, /(')/);

In my experience, "pretty printing" usually means "formatting", but it appears that you are referring to "syntax highlighting" or "syntax coloring", so I edited the issue to make that more clear.

Confirmed. It seems to be incorrectly detecting the ' character as the start of a string.
