When I initially released this project, I released it under my own copyright. I
have since then worked on it in my 20% time at Google (and want to continue
doing this) and my life becomes much simpler if the copyright is Google's.
From the perspective of how this project is run and managed, **NOTHING**
changes. YCM is not a Google product, merely a project run by someone who just
happens to work for Google.
Please note that the license of the project is **NOT** changing.
People sending in future pull requests will have to sign the Google
[CLA](https://developers.google.com/open-source/cla/individual) (you can sign
online at the bottom of that page) before those pull requests could be merged
in. People who sent in pull requests that were merged in the past will get an
email from me asking them to sign the CLA as well.
We don't want to send a unicode string to the user's ycm_extra_conf.py file.
This should fix problems with sending the filename to YCM's CompilationDatabase
API.
Now, every FileReadyToParse event returns diagnostics, if any. This is instead
of the previous system where the diagnostics were being fetched in a different
request (this caused race conditions).
There appear to be timing issues for the diag requests. Somehow, we're sending
out-of-date diagnostics and then not updating the UI when things change.
That needs to be fixed.
The server is multi-threaded and will spawn a new thread for each new request.
Thus, the completers need not manage their own threads or even provide async
APIs; we _want_ them to block because now were implementing the request-response
networking API.
The client gets the async API through the network (i.e., it can do something
else while the request is pending).
This is still fast & efficient because if we detect that the buffer hasn't been
changed (by examining b:changedtick), the parse doesn't proceed.
In effect, we now make sure we parse the file after every change to the buffer
as soon as that change happens. This means that compilation error feedback will
now be much, MUCH quicker.
