The answer was to use boost::move() on the functors, but since there is AFAIK no
move emulation support for Boost.Function, the fix may only work on C++11
compilers. That needs to be looked into.
Use *LD_LIBRARY_PATH when configured to build against the systems libclang.
This patch makes the install script work even when libclang is in a custom path.

The issue was that the user could open a C-family file and have it start
compiling in the background. While it is still compiling, he could trigger the
completion system with a member dot operator. Because the file was still
compiling for the very first time, the TranslationUnit object was yet not
created. Sadly, this meant that UpdatingTranslationUnit would return false, and
a new query request would be created, the GUI would hang until it was done
aaaaand terrible lag until the file was compiled.
This was a very rare edge case that could also only be triggered if it takes a
considerable amount of time to compile the file.
We now use the compilation working directory for a file that is specified in the
CompilationDatabase. We don't actually change the working directory of the
process, even temporarily (that would be annoying to users); we munge the flags
coming from the database so that all the relative paths in them are resolved to
absolute ones.
One more thing needs to be done though: the clang_completer.py file needs to not
trigger at all when YCM has been compiled without cpp support. FIX THAT!
This was intended to show the full clang output for a given diagnostic,
including notes. But it appears that libclang does not provide this
functionality...
If the user had code like "foo.bar" and then entered insert mode after the 'r'
in "bar", YCM would cause vim to hang.
The problem happened because a sorting task was created that would try to sort
on the latest clang result but none would be created because a clang task was
not created in this occasion. clang_data_ready_ would remain false and would
never be set to true, thus causing an infinite loop in SortingThreadMain since
the thread would forever wait on the mutex.
This was rectified with better handling of the clang results cache. Now the
cache is a full class and it also stores the line & column number of the
location for which the results were computed. Better logic is in place for the
cache invalidation.
The problem was caused by a race condition of all things. ClangCompleter would
set possibly_completions_ready when starting the first parse pass for the file
and then would try to extract diagnostics for the file before the diagnostics
were done. Technically this was not a problem because only an empty diagnostics
vector would be returned, but this triggered Syntastic because hey, we have some
diagnostics to show (even though we don't).
And then Syntastic would try to close the location list window during startup
when this operation is not available. Technically it's Syntastic's fault, but a
more principled way to check for done diagnostics is to return and use a future
for file parsing operations and this solution also works around the Syntastic
issue.
This change should fix the random hangs and segfaults when using the clang
completer. Also, assertion errors printed to the console on vim exit should go
away too, same thing with segfaults on vim exit. These "on exit" errors were
caused by not cleanly shutting down the background threads; both the identifier
completer and the clang one now join the threads on destruction. This results in
a clean shutdown.
The new clang completer architecture now uses only one clang thread (again)
instead of a completion and parsing thread. Since the parsing task needs to wait
on the completion task if it was started first (and vice-versa) there's no point
to using two threads. The desired "simplicity" of using two threads for these
two tasks actually created needless complexity (and bugs). Sigh. Such is life.
A TranslationUnit abstraction was also created and this in turn also reduces the
complexity of the clang completer.
The clang completer now also has some (very) basic tests.
The completion text in the menu is different. We used to just show the func name
in the "main" part of the completion menu, now we show the full signature
without the return type (which is shown on the right)
We limit the number of candidates returned to Vim to 20 and also make sure that
we are not returning any duplicate candidates. This provides a noticeable
improvement in latency.
First off, we don't block the GUI thread anymore for ClangCompleter (that was
always temporary). Secondly, now ClangCompleter will cache the data coming from
clang so that query-based filtering of members is fast.
This change was also the root cause of the crash bug I spent two days tracking
down. The problem was that the new bool member was not added to the custom copy
ctor... since we don't really need a custom copy ctor for Result, we're going
with the compiler-provided one.
This will make it easy to use the same Candidates for both the
IdentifierCompleter and the ClangCompleter, thereby reducing memory consumption
and increasing performance.
This removes the need for a special overload for AddCandidatesToDatabase. Also,
the GetFuture function now provides a more sensible API with the list being
returned instead of accepted as an out parameter.
llvm also has a copy of gtest in its source tree. This causes cmake to bork
since it sees several different targets with the same name (gtest and
gtest_main). So we have to rename our versions of gtest and gtest_main to
something else... We're just appending _ycm now.
This will cause pain when we want to update gtest in the future from upstream,
but I don't see a better way of handling this.
The problem was that should have been using a longest common subsequence
algorithm for the "number of word boundary character matches" calculation. Our
old approach would fail for the following case:
Query: "caafoo"
Candidate1 : "acaaCaaFooGxx"
Candidate2 : "aCaafoog"
Candidate1 needs to win. This is now also a test case.
The point is that we want to prefer candidates that have the query characters
"earlier" in their text, e.g. "xxabcxxx" over "xxxxxabc" for "abc" query.
