#In projects, ZLS does syntax highlighting only for files under the project, not files outside (std)

when I jump to a definition of a function/type used in one of the source files of the project and get sent to std/somewhere else, it doesn't do syntax highlighting for those files, only the files under my project. lsp completion works there but not syntax highlighting. this issue only happens when I open source files inside/under a project. when I open a zig file that isn't under a project and jump to a definition, it highlights the other files correctly.

#

example:

#

project's main.zig:

#

when I jump to definition of posix:

#

if I do this again but main.zig is NOT under a project with a build.zig etc..:

my zls setup in nvim:

what's the zls log look like

tribal talon
#

like the output of lspinfo or something else?

not sure how you have it all set up/how it works in neovim, but check .cache/zls/zls.log

#

doesn't look like there are errors

limpid sparrow
#

while viewing the external files?

tribal talon
#

yep

#

what's your build.zig look like

tribal talon
# 
const std = @import("std");

pub fn build(b: *std.Build) void {
    const target = b.standardTargetOptions(.{});
    const optimize = b.standardOptimizeOption(.{});

    const exe = b.addExecutable(.{
        .name = "quartz",
        .root_module = b.createModule(.{
            .root_source_file = b.path("src/main.zig"),
            .target = target,
            .optimize = optimize,
            .imports = &.{},
        }),
    });

    b.installArtifact(exe);

    const run_step = b.step("run", "Run the app");

    const run_cmd = b.addRunArtifact(exe);
    run_step.dependOn(&run_cmd.step);

    run_cmd.step.dependOn(b.getInstallStep());

    if (b.args) |args| run_cmd.addArgs(args);

    const exe_tests = b.addTest(.{
        .root_module = exe.root_module,
    });

    const run_exe_tests = b.addRunArtifact(exe_tests);

    const test_step = b.step("test", "Run tests");
    test_step.dependOn(&run_exe_tests.step);
}

very basic
