On Python 3, evaluating a Vim expression will raise a unicode exception
if it contains an invalid sequence of bytes for the current encoding.
We can't really do anything about it because this is the way Vim and
Python 3 interact. However, we can prevent this situation to occur by
not evaluating Vim data that we have no control over: in particular,
the Vim globals. This is done by:
- adding one by one the YCM default options instead of extending the
Vim globals with them;
- only evaluating the Vim global variable names (and not their values)
when building the YCM options for the ycmd server.
This commit is the YCM-client part of the support. The ycmd support is
already done.
We now need per-language identifier regexes in ycmd (see
identifier_utils.py). There's some for HTML, CSS and the generic regex
that was used for everything until now. Pull requests welcome for other
languages.
Fixes#86.
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.
Now, "foobar.h" will be changed to insert "foo" if the text after the cursor is
"bar.h". This already worked for "foobar" and "bar", but the overlap search
would stop before a non-word character. This has now been resolved.
This can happen when the user inserts a candidate string like "operator[]" which
doesn't end with an identifier char. A very obscure bug, but a bug nonetheless.
This means we can now load just ycm_client_support (which is a much smaller
library) into Vim and ycm_core into ycmd. Since ycm_client_support never depends
on libclang.so, we never have to load that into Vim which makes things much,
much easier.
For instance (`|` represents the cursor):
1. Buffer state: `foo.|bar`
2. A completion candidate of `zoobar` is shown and the user selects it.
3. Buffer state: `foo.zoobar|bar` instead of `foo.zoo|bar` which is what the
user wanted.
This commit resolves that issue.
It could be argued that the user actually wants the final buffer state to be
`foo.zoobar|` (the cursor at the end), but that would be much more difficult
to implement and is probably not worth doing.
Fixes#374.
