| Re: [lsp4e-dev] How to use the generic editor with all/more of the LS features, like outline, formatting? |
And of course, trying again everything works even better than I had hoped. Awesome. I do not know what the problem was last time I tried.

When I tried it with my own language server it seems that many features of lsp4e (like completion, outline, formatting, etc) are not supported out-of-the-box when using the generic editor with a language server. > I am primarily interested in things that “just work”, i.e. by just configuring a language server and content type in the Eclipse preferences, without creating a new plugin or any code. > > All the features you listed "just work" in LSP4E. You can see for instance how Eclipse Wild Web Developer, Eclipse Corrosion or ShellWax have those enabled through language servers without specific configurations. > However, it's important to make sure that your language server speaks a recent enough version of the protocol, and that it sends serverCapatibilites that explicit its support for such features. LSP4E wouldn't invoke any feature of th Language Server if it's not declared in the capabilities. > > One way to get hints here is to enable the LSP4E<->LS communication log, you can do it in preferences. With this, you should be able to verify basic stuff such as 1. is the LS correctly started and bound to LSP4E, 2. whether it does send serverCapabilities, 3. whether LSP4E sends completion requests... and so on. > > HTH > _______________________________________________ > lsp4e-dev mailing list > lsp4e-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx > To change your delivery options, retrieve your password, or unsubscribe from this list, visit > https://www.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/lsp4e-dev Per Mildner RISE ICT/SICS
