Syntax highlighting in go.mod files

Great news, we are continuing to extend our support for Go Modules projects. GoLand 2019.3 will provide syntax highlighting for go.mod files so you can read them effortlessly. But that’s not all! Stay tuned, there is more coming soon.

Noticeable bug-fixes:

GO-8134 — We’ve improved the parser slightly, now it works better with trailing commas.
GO-7879 — GoLand now provides a more accurate bound check for array types.
GO-8280 — The IDE now correctly deletes comments when using the Delete type quick-fix.
GO-8267 — Comments inside imports don’t break Find Usages anymore.

We love hearing from you! Your feedback is invaluable and often the source of excellent ideas for improvement. Please tell us what you think by dropping us a request in our bug tracker or by tweeting us @GoLandIDE. Thank you!
