Syntax Error Highlighting Not Working in IJava Kernel on VS Code

[mayur-cli]

Thank you for this amazing project, I use this daily since it made my life much easier with notetaking. I'm using the IJava kernel in Jupyter notebooks within VS Code. While syntax highlighting works after I adjust the metadata, I'm unable to get syntax error highlighting to function.

Is there a way to enable syntax error highlighting when using the IJava kernel in Jupyter notebooks, especially in the VS Code environment? Any suggestions or workarounds would be greatly appreciated!

Example of typos/errors I want to be highlighted:

Hi @mayur-cli. While iJava paved the way for Java in Jupyter, it is itself not supported these days. We created an independent fork of iJava called jjava in the DFLib community to make sure the project lives. See this post for more details.

While the original JJava devs mostly used browser-based Jupyter, there's are more and more requests for proper VSCode support, so that's definitely one of the priorities. Feel free to come to our GitHub for this discussion.

BTW, Java code highlighting in the notebook cell works for me with the vanilla JJava kernel without changing anything.
