Hi all, When one plugin is asynchronously updating a quickfix list, currently it is not possible for another plugin to update another quickfix list synchronously or asynchronously using the cexpr, cfile, and other commands. The setqflist() function can update any quickfix list in the stack. But this function currently doesn't support parsing output using 'errorformat'.
For example, let us say one plugin asynchronously updates the quickfix list with a build tool output. Now if the user runs a query command to create and update another quickfix list, then both the plugins will end up updating the same quickfix list. This is because the commands like cexpr, cfile, etc. use the qf_init_ext() function to parse the output and add entries to the quickfix list. The qf_init_ext() function supports updating only the last quickfix list. This problem can be solved by changing the qf_init_ext() function to operate on any quickfix list in the stack. But this function currently saves state information across multiple invocations to support directory/file stack and multi-line error output. This state information is stored in qf_info_S (entire quickfix stack) instead of qf_list_T (per list). This state information needs to be stored per quickfix list by moving to qf_list_T. Does anyone see any issues with this or any other suggestions? - Yegappan -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
