I think we always need something like TM to have an in-process cache for symbols/tags. We're still a lightweight IDE so a my requirement would be to not exchange megabytes of json text on every keystroke. I call it TM2 because it doesn't necessarily need to be API-compatible to the current TM. So I think my idea would be to keep TM2 in the core and call out to the ctags-server on some suitable opportunities, then cache the response and move forward. Would have to make sure that TM2 is also compatible with other major language servers. Question: How does a language server get access to the documents? Does it have to be saved on disk so that the server can `open()` it? If yes, how can LSP possible act on unsaved buffers? If no, do we have to constantly send the entire document via IPC or network? -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/discussions/3675#discussioncomment-7479130 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
