Send the request as the unloaded buffer instead of the current buffer
for the BufferUnload event notification. This fixes the issue where
the filetype of the current buffer is not the same as the unloaded
buffer one, making the ycmd server uses the wrong completer when
handling the request.
When an error occurs during completions, a message is displayed on
the status line. If this message is longer than the width of the
current window, Vim will prompt the user to press enter or type a
command to hide the message, interrupting user workflow. We prevent
that by truncating the message to window width.
Merge PostMultiLineNotice, EchoText, and EchoTextVimWidth functions
into PostVimMessage.
When columns are clamped to not be past the contents of the line for
highlighting diagnostics, we need to account for the column end not
being included in the diagnostic range.
Open the quickfix window to full width at the bottom of the screen with
its height set to fit all entries. This behavior can be overridden by
using the YcmQuickFixOpened autocommand.
Add a new section for autocommands in the documentation.
Update GoTo and ReplaceChunks tests.
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.
vim.eval returns a str() object on py2, but our internal strings are all unicode().
We use vimsupport.VimExpressionToPythonType to wrap the conversion complexities.
On Windows and Python 2, the full exception message from IOError
in CheckFilename will contain the filepath formatted as a unicode
string. Since the filepath is already added in the RuntimeError
message, use the strerror attribute to only display the error.
Python 3 is much stricter around mixing bytes with unicode (and by
"stricter," I mean it doesn't allow it at all) so we're making
vimsupport only return `unicode` objects (`str` on py3). The idea is
that YCM (and ycmd) internals only ever deal with unicode.
We simply apply the changes to each file in turn. The existing replacement
logic is unchanged, except that it now no longer implicitly assumes we are
talking about the current buffer.
If a buffer is not visible for the requested file name, we open it in
a horizontal split, make the edits, then hide the window. Because this
can cause UI flickering, and leave hidden, modified buffers around, we
issue a warning to the user stating the number of files for which we are
going to do this. We pop up the quickfix list at the end of applying
the edits to allow the user to see what we changed.
If the user opts to abort due to, say, the file being open in another
window, we simply raise an error and give up, as undoing the changes
is too complex to do programatically, but trivial to do manually in such
a rare case.
Vim's QuickFix lists require 1-based columns, which is what is returned
from ycmd's commands.
As noted in the comments, the Vim documentation for setqflist is
somewhat vague about this "byte offset", but it is confirmed to mean
"1-based column number" both in testing and in :help getqflist.
If already opened logfiles are not visible (hidden buffers or in another
tab), close them and open new ones. It fixes the issue where the command
seems to do nothing even though it actually close the non-visible logfiles.
We display the detailed info text in the preview window. Vim's preview window is
designed to display actual files, not scratch data. Our approach is to open a
temporary file, even though that file is never written. This way, all of Vim's
existing settings for the preview window (and people's configured mappings) just
work. This is also consistent with showing the documentation in the preview
window during completion.
Other plugins have more complicated functions for this (such as eclim), or
Scratch.vim, but this approach is simple and doesn't require external
dependencies or additional settings.
Tests:
This required fixing a sort-of-bug in which the mock'd Vim module was always
only set once, and could not be changed outside of the module which created it.
This meant that it wasn't easy to have arbitrary tests, because it was dependent
on the order in which the tests execute as to whether the return from
MockVimModule() was actually the one in use.
The solution was to make the mock'd vim module a singleton, and use mock's
patch decorator to assign new MagicMock() instances to those methods in the vim
module which a particular test is interested in.
