Embed the NX Tcl Remote Debugger into the NX Postprocessor extension.
Add a new debugging client, protocol, and adapter logic to
drive attach/launch, breakpoints, stepping, and evaluation
via the runtime adapter.
- Introduced a client debugger with a new adapter and protocol
- Wired attach/launch, breakpoints, stepping, and evaluation
- Updated docs and licensing to reflect the embedded debugger
This change adds cached and incremental analysis for the LSP
server to improve responsiveness. The client now debounces
diagnostic updates to avoid excessive recomputation. The
server introduces per-document line caches and various
caches for completions, inlay hints, and metadata to
support faster, incremental updates.
- Debounce diagnostics on text changes to reduce noise.
- Add caches for completions, inlay hints, and metadata.
- Introduce incremental analysis with per-document line caches.
Adds configurable inlay hints for TCL procedures and merges signatures from built-ins and workspace files. The feature supports parameterNames and suppressWhenArgumentMatchesName and respects an optional range filter and current-file priority.
- Introduces built-in and custom inlay hint builders
- Honors inlayHints parameterNames and suppression options
- Adds tests validating hints, ranges, and priority rules
This adds a small DSL-aware helper to extract CDL event
declarations and generate a ready-to-use snippet. It also
extends hover support to show the snippet and parameter
hints for CDL events, improving developer productivity.
- Generate a MOM event handler scaffold and local vars
- Hover shows the generated snippet and mom_ parameter hints
Adds an end-to-end Python debug workflow for the extension.
Includes a new prepare-debug.ps1 script and a VS Code task.
Extends the Python server and extension to coordinate a debug session and safe startup.
- Add prepare-debug.ps1 and a VS Code task to build the debug bundle
- Enable Python debug wiring in the server and tests
- Ensure a single stable Python debug session during startup
The changes introduce a Tcl symbol index powering LSP navigation
features across the workspace. A navigation API exposes
snapshots and update hooks, enabling goto-definition,
references, and rename using the index. Background indexing
now watches Tcl files and rebuilds the index to stay in sync.
- Add Tcl symbol index and navigation snapshot API
- Wire go-to-definition, references, and rename using the index
- Watch Tcl files and refresh the index in the background
- Move TCL folding range computation from client to language server, avoiding duplicate regions.
- Serialize language server restarts to prevent multiple server instances running concurrently.
- Pin server-side Python dependencies to specific minor versions for improved stability and predictability.
- Make debug server connection non-fatal, allowing the language server to start even if the debugger isn't attached.
- Optimize semantic token generation by caching Tclint plugin commands.
