Outline view is not reflecting headers and macros

[alirana01]

Hi,

It took me a while to get back on the cdt-lsp side. I noticed that the defautl C/C++ editor was generating really nice SymbolModels and the outline view reflected the complete information of the opened file.

With the cdt-lsp editor I noticed that the outline is limited to variables and functions only

The attached images are from the same file in different editors.

Incase you need a bit more insight to the file I am using it can be found here (https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/blob/master/examples/bluetooth/blufi/main/blufi_example_main.c)

I am also attaching the clangd console output while debugging my pde project
clangd.log

If my understanding is correct it could also be that clangd is not returning the header and macors as a symbol information. Sadly my understanding of clangd is not strong enough to get to know more about it.

Possibly if you can point me to the correct direction for the code I can take a look at that as well.

Yes, you' re right. I haven't dug very deep yet, but IMO the Language Server Protocol does not support header and macros in its data model, because they are C/C++ language specific.

Thanks for the response can you please point me to the file responsible for the request to the clangd server for documentSymbols?

It's part of the LPS4J/LSP4E repos. Take a look at https://github.com/eclipse-lsp4j/lsp4j
