LanguageServerAPIs The Lanugage Server APIs provides basic facilities for getting or supplying information used by language server implementations.

What is New (see all changes)?

Jul 2 '22 Added CodeLensProvider and relevant elements
CodeLensProvider SPI allows to provide code lens for a given document.
May 30 '22 Added DiagnosticReporter to trigger diagnostic collection
DiagnosticReporter SPI should be implemented to allow alerting the LSP server core that diagnostics for certain file(s) may have changed. The core implementation should then poll ErrorProviders to collect the diagnostics. API clients should call Diagnostic.findReporterControl to obtain an accessor which can fire the alert.
Mar 9 '22 Added CallHierarchyProvider and relevant elements
CallHierarchyProvider SPI allows to trace incoming and outgoing calls. CallHierarchyEntry describes a specific call site or target.
Jan 24 '22 Adding StructeProvider and StructureElement
A StructureProvider interface allows to compute structure (tree of SourceElements) of the given file.
Jun 21 '21 Adding ErrorProvider.Context.getOffset() method
An ErrorProvider.Context.getOffset() method introduced that allows to compute hint for a given file offset.
