Previously if we have errors displayed and we just want syntastic to
shut up, then we would use :SyntasticToggleMode but existing errors
would not be removed (ever).
So empty them out when we toggle modes.
When coming into active mode this will cause a check to be done which
will pick up errors as normal.
The gentoo vim syntax files use names like gentoo-mirrors, gentoo-metadata, etc.
This simple, and very ugly, fix makes it possible to write syntax checkers for
them.
Only clear the cmd window when it is displaying a message that we
echoed. Previously we were echoing a blank line every time the cursor
moved - this was clearing messages generated from other sources than
syntastic.
In the javascript:jshint checker the error messages are being returned
with a newline prefixed to the front. I have tried to fix this in the
errorformat - but I cant see anything that would cause it.
Im not sure if this is a one-off thing, but strip out all new lines here
just in case.
Use SyntasticWarning and SyntasticError highlight groups when calling
matchadd(). This makes it trivial to clear all of our highlights without
having to store IDs.
Stole this code from kevinw's pull request (#46)
Many of the syntax checkers were setting the 'bufnr' key for each
error manually and one was setting 'text' if it didnt exist too.
Add the 'defaults' option to SyntasticMake to set default values in the
returned error list - it only sets values if they are empty.
Move 2 functions further up syntastic.vim so that all public functions
are at the bottom - purely to be tidy.
Stick some comments on functions - most functions now have at least a
one liner explaining them.
Also, rename a variable in SyntasticHighlightErrors (since I had to look
at the log to figure out what it was).
Store error highlight IDs on a per window basis rather than per buffer.
This is needed as matchadd() adds highlights to the current window - not
buffer. This meant an error would occur when you open a file, create an
error that caused a highlight, then open the same file in a different
window - because it would call matchdelete() with an id that wasnt
defined for the current window.
This system has been superseded by the new mode map code. If requested
in future, some code may be added to manipulate the active/passive types
in the mode map at runtime to provide the same functionality.
This option will allow users to fine tune when automatic syntax checking
is done.
The option should be set to something like:
let g:syntastic_mode_map = { 'mode': 'active',
\ 'active_filetypes': [],
\ 'passive_filetypes': ['puppet'] }
g:syntastic_mode_map['mode'] can take one of 2 values - "active" or
"passive". When set to active, syntastic does automatic checking as
usual. When set to "passive" syntastic only checks when the user calls
:SyntasticCheck.
The exceptions to these rules are defined in "active_filetypes"
"passive_filetypes". In passive mode, automatic checks are still done
for all filetypes in the "active_filetypes" array. In active mode,
automatic checks are not done for any filetypes in the
"passive_filetypes" array.
I'd attempted to find something useful in the sh/csh/tcsh man pages to
get similar shell redirection that &>/>& does, but it appears that all
fds are redirected, not just stderr and stdout.
This allows a particular file type to be disabled but still be checked
when desired. Useful for syntax checks that take a few seconds like the
puppet one.
Add the syntastic_stl_format flag and doc it under
:help syntastic_stl_format. This allows the user to control what
information is displayed in the syntastic statusline flag.
g:syntastic_auto_loc now has the following possible options:
1 or "full_auto" or "fully_auto" behaves as normal, closing the loclist
when there are no errors and opening when there are errors.
2 or "semi_auto" will automatically close the loclist but _not_
automatically open it.
