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.
By toggling the g:ycm_seed_identifiers_with_syntax option, the user can now tell
YCM to seed the identifier database with the language's keywords.
This is off by default because it can be noisy. Since the identifier completer
collects identifiers from buffers as the user visits them, the keywords that the
user cares about will already be in the database, regardless of the state of the
new option. So the only keywords added will be the ones the user is not using.
Meh. But people want it so there.
Fixes#142.
Now the user has the option of writing custom logic before ycm_core.so is
loaded. This can be used to dynamically change the location of where ycm_core.so
is loaded by prepending paths to sys.path.
Very, very few people will need this feature, but I'm one of them so there.
Added the `g:ycm_autoclose_preview_window_after_insertion` option
(similar to `g:ycm_autoclose_preview_window_after_completion`).
If set, the preview window is automatically closed when the user leaves
insert mode.
To prevent the execution of malicious code the new default is
to ask the user before a `.ycm_extra_conf.py` file is loaded.
This can be disabled using the option `g:ycm_confirm_extra_conf`.
This commit introduces a helper class `FlagsModules` that keeps track of
and caches the currently loaded modules. To introduce further criteria
for a module look at `FlagsModules.ShouldLoad`.
Also `:YcmDebugInfo` now lists the file that was used to determine
the current set of flags.
`Flags.ModuleForFile` could be used in a user-facing command that
opens the `.ycm_extra_conf.py` corresponding to the current file.
A second command could then force a reloding of this module via
`Flags.ReloadModule`.
I'm pretty sure that allowing ycm_core.dll was wrong. Python docs state that the
extension for compiled Python modules on Widows is "pyd"; see this link for more
details: http://docs.python.org/2/faq/windows.html#is-a-pyd-file-the-same-as-a-dll
Key quote from the page:
"Of course, foo.pyd is required if you want to say import foo."
CMakeLists.txt has been previously updated to produce a ycm_core.pyd on Windows,
not a ycm_core.dll.
Now there's a nice user-configurable setting for when YCM should trigger
semantic completion. This is very useful for the new omni_completer that uses
data coming from Vim's omnicomplete system.
