Problem: We have `P_(BOOL|NUM|STRING)` macros to represent an option's type, which is redundant because `OptValType` can already do that. The current implementation of option type flags is also too limited to allow adding multitype options in the future.
Solution: Remove `P_(BOOL|NUM|STRING)` and replace it with a new `type_flags` attribute in `vimoption_T`. Also do some groundwork for adding multitype options in the future.
Side-effects: Attempting to set an invalid keycode option (e.g. `set t_foo=123`) no longer gives an error.
This reverts commit fe30d8ccef.
The original commit intends to prevent heap-use-after-free with EXITFREE
caused by changedtick_di, which is no longer a problem.
Freeing buffers after freeing variables will cause heap-use-after-free
with EXITFREE when a partial is used as prompt callback.
FUNC_ATTR_* should only be used in .c files with generated headers.
Defining FUNC_ATTR_* as empty in headers causes misuses of them to be
silently ignored. Instead don't define them by default, and only define
them as empty after a .c file has included its generated header.
We already have an extensive suite of static analysis tools we use,
which causes a fair bit of redundancy as we get duplicate warnings. PVS
is also prone to give false warnings which creates a lot of work to
identify and disable.
The 'arabicshape' feature of vim is a transformation of unicode text to
make arabic and some related scripts look better at display time. In
particular the content of a cell will be adjusted depending on the
(original) content of the cells just before and after it.
This is implemented by the arabic_shape() function in nvim. Before this
commit, shaping was invoked in four different contexts:
- when rendering buffer text in win_line()
- in line_putchar() for rendering virtual text
- as part of grid_line_puts, used by messages and statuslines and
similar
- as part of draw_cmdline() for drawing the cmdline
This replaces all these with a post-processing step in grid_put_linebuf(),
which has become the entry point for all text rendering after recent
refactors.
An aim of this is to make the handling of multibyte text yet simpler.
One of the main reasons multibyte chars needs to be "parsed" into
codepoint arrays of composing chars is so that these could be inspected
for the purpose of shaping. This can likely be vastly simplified in many
contexts where only the total length (in bytes) and width of composed
char is needed.
- Move vimoption_T to option.h
- option_defs.h is for option-related types
- option_vars.h corresponds to Vim's option.h
- option_defs.h and option_vars.h don't include each other
This reduces the total number of khash_t instantiations from 22 to 8.
Make the khash internal functions take the size of values as a runtime
parameter. This is abstracted with typesafe Map containers which
are still specialized for both key, value type.
Introduce `Set(key)` type for when there is no value.
Refactor shada.c to use Map/Set instead of khash directly.
This requires `map_ref` operation to be more flexible.
Return pointers to both key and value, plus an indicator for new_item.
As a bonus, `map_key` is now redundant.
Instead of Map(cstr_t, FileMarks), use a pointer map as the FileMarks struct is
humongous.
Make `event_strings` actually work like an intern pool instead of wtf it
was doing before.
Problem: Alloc/free of buffer for each quickfix entry is inefficient.
Solution: Use a shared grow array. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#11365)

Problem:
1. Some calls to preserve_exit() don't put a message in IObuff, so the
IObuff printed by preserve_exit() contains unrelated information.
2. If a TUI client runs out of memory or receives a deadly signal, the
error message is shown on alternate screen and cannot be easily seen
because the TUI exits alternate screen soon afterwards.
Solution:
Pass error message to preserve_exit() and exit alternate screen before
printing it.
Note that this doesn't fix the problem that server error messages cannot
be easily seen on exit. This is tracked in #21608 and #21843.
- The defined interface for the UI is only the RPC protocol. The original
UI interface as an array of function pointers fill no function.
- On the server, all the UI:s are all RPC channels.
- ui.c is only used on the server.
- The compositor is a preprocessing step for single-grid UI:s
- on the client, ui_client and tui talk directly to each other
- we still do module separation, as ui_client.c could form the basis
of a libnvim client module later.
Items for later PR:s
- vim.ui_attach is still an unhappy child, reconsider based on plugin experience.
- the flags in ui_events.in.h are still a mess. Can be simplified now.
- UX for remote attachment needs more work.
- startup for client can be simplified further (think of the millisecs we can save)
Allow Include What You Use to remove unnecessary includes and only
include what is necessary. This helps with reducing compilation times
and makes it easier to visualise which dependencies are actually
required.
Work on https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/549, but doesn't close
it since this only works fully for .c files and not headers.
Enable and fix bugprone-misplaced-widening-cast warning.
Fix some modernize-macro-to-enum and readability-else-after-return
warnings, but don't enable them. While the warnings can be useful, they
are in general too noisy to enable.
all pointers returned by arena_alloc residing in arena block should be
properly aligned
to meet neovim's alignment requirements but keeping it simple settle on
ARENA_ALIGN = MAX(sizeof(void *), sizeof(double)).
Problem: Command line history code is spread out.

Also graduate the +cmdline_hist feature.

Cherry-pick ins_compl_len() -> get_compl_len() from patch 8.2.4001.
Revert a71c5e9eb9: ctrl_x_mode is no
longer a global variable, so l_ctrl_x_mode is no longer needed.
Problem: With EXITFREE defined terminal menus are not cleared.
Solution: Also clear terminal menus. Remove condition that is always true.

Note for external UIs: Nvim can now emit multiple "redraw" event batches
before a final "flush" event is received. To retain existing behavior,
clients should make sure to update visible state at an explicit "flush"
event, not just the end of a "redraw" batch of event.
* Get rid of copy_object() blizzard in the auto-generated ui_event layer
* Special case "grid_line" by encoding screen state directly to
msgpack events with no intermediate API events.
* Get rid of the arcane notion of referring to the screen as the "shell"
* Array and Dictionary are kvec_t:s, so define them as such.
* Allow kvec_t:s, such as Arrays and Dictionaries, to be allocated with
a predetermined size within an arena.
* Eliminate redundant capacity checking when filling such kvec_t:s
with values.
drawback: tracing memory errors with ASAN is less accurate for arena
allocated memory.
Therefore, to start with it is being used for Object types around
serialization/deserialization exclusively. This is going to have
a large impact especially when TUI is refactored as a co-prosess
as all UI events will be serialized and deserialized by nvim itself.
