CHANGES:

Features

• Enable semantic highlighting support by default (#933)

• Support connecting over pipes and socket. Pipes on Windows aren't yet supported (#946)

  More about communication channels in LSP specification.

• Re-enable ocamlformat-rpc for formatting code snippets (but not files and not on Windows) (#920, #939)

  One needs to have installed either ocamlformat package version > 0.21.0 or, otherwise, ocamlformat-rpc package. Note that previously ocamlformat-rpc came in a standalone OPAM package, but since ocamlformat version > 0.21.0, it comes within ocamlformat package.

• Add custom ocamllsp/hoverExtended request (#561)

• Support utf-8 position encoding clients (#919)

  More about position encoding in LSP specification.

• Show unwrapped module alias types on hovering over module names. This is due to upgrading to merlin 4.7 and using merlin's verbosity=smart by default (#942)

Fixes

• Respect the client's completion item resolve and preSelect capabilities (#925, #936)

• Disable polling for dune's watch mode on Windows and OCaml 4.14.0 (#935)

• Fix semantic highlighting of "long identifiers," e.g., Foo.Bar.x (#932)

• Fix syncing of document contents:

  • For ranges that span an entire line (#927)
  • Previously, whole line edits would incorrectly eat the newline characters (#971)
