Christmas

• workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles works (tested on VSCode and coc.nvim) and file deletion will remove index symbols
• .ccls enhancement #171 added new directives %compile_commands.json %h %hpp %objective-c %objective-cpp
• -v=1 dumps command line options of files for parsing
• fuzzy_match: when the completion filter begins with a letter, builtin macros prefixed with an underscore will not be returned
• Support textDocument/declaration and LocationLink[] return types.
• Properly handle "exit" #159
• Support signatureHelp.signatureInformationparameterInformation.labelOffsetSupport cf. microsoft/language-server-protocol#640
• codeAction: fixed an incompatibility issue with VSCode

Completion

• More precise diagnostics/completion: an included file that has been changed does not need to be saved to take effect.
• Decreased Content-Length: from 32K to 25K for some cases
• On clang < 8, fixed #include < completion for -I dir
• Macros are categorized as Text, instead of Interface
• Refactor and rename (clang_complete.cc -> sema_manager.cc)
• C++17 deduction guide #173

Others

• Support multiple -init=: "initializationOptions" from client are applied first, then -init=. Scalar options will be overridden while arrays will get concatenated

Patch versions

• 0.20181225.2 #182 textDocument/codeAction used incorrect range intersection
• 0.20181225.3 #187 the new feature %h %hpp didn't take effect
• 0.20181225.4 #197 keys in file->symbol2refcnt could be modified in message_handler.cc. Affected old releases. Tagged 0.20181010.1 0.20181024.1 0.20181111.2 0.20181225.4, respectively.
• 0.20181225.6 make project.cc:GetSearchDirs recognize clang.extraArgs ; on Windows, normalize the drive letter used in g_config->cacheDirectory
• 0.20181225.7 make workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles conservative #184 (comment)
• 0.20181225.8 bugfix: when neither .ccls nor compile_commands.json is specified, textDocument/didSave did not trigger re-index. The fix for the old issue (a plethora of "not indexed" errors) didn't take effect
• 0.20181225.9 #316 bugfix: indexer.cc shouldn't use std::shared_lock to guard root2folder being concurrently written.

1111

• Switched to Clang's native #include completion if clang >= 8. include_completion.cc is kept for clang<8

• Refactored message handlers, deleted related static constructors and removed many ls prefixes from class/struct names.

• textDocument/references and workspace/symbol get a new parameter vector<string> folders; to return results confined in specified folders.

• hierarchical textDocument/documentSymbol lists member functions without definitions.

• Fixed EnumConstantDecl's kind & EnumDecl's vars. $ccls/member on scoped enumerations lists its enumeration constants.

• Fixed/worked around some preamble bugs

• Fixed MSVC 2017 compatibility issues

• tobik added a FreeBSD port

Success stories with ClickHouse, Linux, and v8

Requests

• textDocument/documentLink #include are represented as hyperlinks in vscode
• textDocument/foldingRange
• $ccls/setSkippedRanges -> $ccls/publishSkippedRanges
• $ccls/publishSemanticHighlighting -> $ccls/publishSemanticHighlight
• Uniquify textDocument/typeDefinition result

Message handling has been refactored.

Others

• Support *.cu CUDA files
• -DSYSTEM_CLANG=off (default) downloads Clang 7.0.0 prebuilt archives from <releases.llvm.org> now (6.0.1 before)
• Add ExtentRef; merge symbol2refcnt and outline2refcnt
• New command line option. ccls -index ~/llvm => index ~/llvm without starting the language server

1010

New methods

• textDocument/{formatting,onTypeFormatting,rangeFormatting} formatting/rangeFormatting can be used as replacement of the command line utility clang-format
• $ccls/info: server status

Completion

• With clang>=7, completion items can replace . with -> or replace -> with . The client-side support of additionalTextEdits is required.
• preamble stat cache
• Some undesired candidates are blacklisted (e.g. destructors, injected class names)

Others

• Fixed hierarchical document symbol
• Redesigned index: SymbolRef, Ref, Use, DeclRef. Decreased memory usage.
• Fixed some issues applying $ccls/member on namespaces. anonymous namespaces/extern "C" are skipped, etc
• Experimental workspace folders
• Increased stack size
• Revamped codeLens & codeAction

Lots of improvement

Hierarchies have been renamed to:
$ccls/call $ccls/member $ccls/inheritance
and are available for flattened view (read custom cross references sections on wiki/LanguageClient-neovim and wiki/Emacs)

Completion and diagnostics have been refactored from libclang to Clang C++.

Real World CTF

Nothing makes me feel more heartbroken: you solved ccls-fringe and left, with the # of its stargazers unchanged.

20190823

This release supports Clang 7~10.

LSP conformance

• Support null as initializationOptions
• Set declarationProvider in server capabilities. Some client may need this capability to enable textDocument/declaration
• Support non-numeric request ID #437

Misc

• Fix a double-free of llvm::MemoryBuffer when parsing fails #350
• Keep comments from system headers and improve textDocument/hover #373
• Fix the conformance issue that VersionedTextDocumentIdentifier.version was omitted. If one renames something spanning more than one document and some documents are not opened, the client may not apply the textDocument/rename change. #387
• Some macro diagnostics were lost because Note::concerned was not propagated to Diag::concerned #391
• index.onChange: true support non-existent files #443
• textDocument/definition: don't jump to the type definition
• Disable warnings and skip processed function bodies. This should provide massive performance improvement when indexing a project. I measured 2x improvement indexing ccls with 2 threads, more than 2x indexing llvm/clang/extra/lld/compiler-rt with 6 threads.

Project

• Fix some issues with hierarchical .ccls in #384
• .ccls: support CUDA files with the %cu directive
• compilationDatabaseDirectory can be absolute. #466
• Improve heuristics for files not described by compile_commands.json "... but not so well for projects with separate include and source directories, e.g. "inc/long/path/to/my_file.h" and "src/long/path/to/my_file.cc" #441

Windows

• A Visual Studio 2017 STL bug prevented clang-cl from compiling ccls/src/utils.hh #371 #414
• If the file is re-saved before the previous indexing has complete, various ambiguous errors might occur. Fixing this by making opened files volatile #235 #453

Extension requests

• $ccls/fileInfo: can optionally dump dependencies, includes and skipped_ranges

Patches

• 0.20190823.3 incorrect use of clang::FileEntry::getName on Arch Linux #487
