Just wanted to chime in to give my perspective on some of the work that's being done here. The index would allow to implement a project-wide completion (e.g., even if you don't `#include "llvm/ADT/DenseMap.h"`, you'll get completion for `DenseMap` and the #include will be added automatically upon completing an item). This is not aiming trying to have persistent indexes, instead trying to figure out how the right interfaces and plug things into `ClangdServer` properly, so that we can later play around with different implementations of the indexes. (I.e., we'll probably have our internal implementation at Google at some point). I guess the main thing right now would be to align on how the `SymbolIndex` interface should look like. ================ Comment at: clangd/ClangdLSPServer.h:37 + llvm::Optional<Path> CompileCommandsDir, + std::vector< + std::pair<llvm::StringRef, CombinedSymbolIndex::WeightedIndex>> ---------------- Maybe pass a parameter of type `SymbolIndex&` instead of a vector, which is used to create `CombinedSymbolIndex` later? It seems that `ClangdServer` does not really care about the specific index implementation that's used (nor should it!) We could have helper methods to conveniently create `CombinedSymbolIndex` from a list of indexes, or even create the default index for clangd. https://reviews.llvm.org/D40548 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
