Node span to Line and Column

[davidjamesb]

Is it possible to convert the given span of a syntax node to it's corresponding line and column position in the XML source, similarly to how XmlReader can work with the IXmlLineInfo interface?

Unfortunately from a quick look I don't think we have anything.

For now I can only offer a workaround such as something like this:

Let's keep the issue open to add line and column conversion facilities.

Generally the editor you're using should provide a facility to convert between positions and line/columns and back.
