Evaluating the values of g:ycm_extra_conf_vim_data may raise a Python exception
(e.g. one of the values is not defined). Since that option is parsed each time
a request is sent, such exception makes the editor almost unusable as each key
press is printing a Python traceback to the user. Catch and log the exception.
Reduce the time spent to build the request when there are a lot of buffers by:
- using the options property on the buffer object to get the mod variable
instead of evaluating getbufvar;
- not computing the buffer filepath if the buffer is not modified;
- passing the number of the unloaded buffer instead of its filepath on the
BufferUnload event. Getting the Python buffer object from its number is
easier than from its filepath.
The 'hidden' option is a global option, not a buffer one. If this option is
false, we should check if the 'bufhidden' option, which is local to the buffer,
is set to 'hide'. If so, the buffer can be hidden despite the 'hidden' option
being false.
Bring fully asynchronous completion by polling for completions with a timer
then calling completefunc once the completions are ready. Use the start column
returned by the server in completefunc. Immediately display the last completion
on the TextChangedI event to prevent the popup menu disappearing while waiting
for the completions. Handle the TextChangedI event not being triggered while
the completion menu is open by closing the menu when inserting a character
through the InsertCharPre event, and when deleting a character on the <BS> and
<C-h> keys.
