The "mapping" tests added in 541dde36e3 were flawed:
- Unlike op-pending mode, RPCs are _blocked_ during map-pending. So
a synchronous RPC like nvim_get_current_buf() waits until
'timeoutlen', then the mapping is canceled.
- helpers.expect() also performs a blocking RPC, so again that must not
intervene the two nvim_input() calls.
closes#6166
normal_finish_command() and normal_prepare() assume that any pending
operator needs to be finished after any subsequent key.
Set `finish_op = false` in nv_event() to indicate that the pending
operator shouldn't be finished in normal_execute().
This is how nv_visual() indicates that 'v' or 'V' in operator-pending
mode should not finish the current pending operator.
fixes#5398fixes#6166 (partially; mappings are still interrupted)
Asynchronous API functions are served immediately, which means pending
input could change the state of Nvim shortly after an async API function
result is returned.
nvim_get_mode() is different:
- If RPCs are known to be blocked, it responds immediately (without
flushing the input/event queue)
- else it is handled just-in-time before waiting for input, after
pending input was processed. This makes the result more reliable
(but not perfect).
Internally this is handled as a special case, but _semantically_ nothing
has changed: API users never know when input flushes, so this internal
special-case doesn't violate that. As far as API users are concerned,
nvim_get_mode() is just another asynchronous API function.
In all cases nvim_get_mode() never blocks for more than the time it
takes to flush the input/event queue (~µs).
Note: This doesn't address #6166; nvim_get_mode() will provoke #6166 if
e.g. `d` is operator-pending.
Closes#6159
Also re-word some error messages:
- "Key does not exist: %s"
- "Invalid channel: %<PRIu64>"
- "Request array size must be 4 (request) or 3 (notification)"
- "String cannot contain newlines"

During testing found the following bugs:
1. msgpack-gen.lua script is completely unprepared for Float values either in
return type or in arguments. Specifically:
1. At the time of writing relevant code FLOAT_OBJ did not exist as well as
FLOATING_OBJ, but it would be used by msgpack-gen.lua should return type
be Float. I added FLOATING_OBJ macros later because did not know that
msgpack-gen.lua uses these _OBJ macros, otherwise it would be FLOAT_OBJ.
2. msgpack-gen.lua should use .data.floating in place of .data.float. But it
did not expect that .data subattribute may have name different from
lowercased type name.
2. vim_replace_termcodes returned its argument as-is if it receives an empty
string (as well as _vim_id*() functions did). But if something in returned
argument lives in an allocated memory such action will cause double free:
once when freeing arguments, then when freeing return value. It did not cause
problems yet because msgpack bindings return empty string as {NULL, 0} and
nothing was actually allocated.
3. New code in msgpack-gen.lua popped arguments in reversed order, making lua
bindings’ signatures be different from API ones.
In Windows Lua's os.tmpname() returns relative paths starting with \s,
prepend them with $TEMP to generate a valid path.
In OS X os.tmpname() returns paths in '/tmp' but they should be in
'/private/tmp'. We cannot use os_name() for platform detection because
some tests use tempname() before nvim is spawned, instead use one of the
following:
1. Set SYSTEM_NAME environment variable before calling the tests, it
is set from CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME(i.e. uname -s or 'Windows')
2. Call uname -s
3. Assume windows
It is otherwise impossible to determine which test failed sanitizer/valgrind
check. test/functional/helpers.lua module return was changed so that tests which
do not provide after_each function to get new check will automatically fail.
Adds support for:
- api:vim_input("<D-a>")
- ":nnoremap <C-D-S-...>" and permutations thereof
UIs must capture the modifier and send it as "<D-...>" to vim_input().
Note: Before this commit, any arbitrary ":nnoremap <{foo}-{bar}>"
mapping could already be invoked with feedkeys("\<{foo}-{bar}>"). This
commit supports "D-" as a modifier that can be combined with "C-", "A-",
"S-" in any order.
For non-GUI (terminal) support, user must:
:set <D-a>={CSI sequence}
then send the {CSI sequence} from their terminal. But this does not work
yet (regression #2204).
Closes#2190
Refactor input.c, normal.c and edit.c to use the K_EVENT special key to trigger
the CURSORHOLD event. In normal and edit mode, K_EVENT is treated as
K_CURSORHOLD, which enables better handling of arbitrary actions in those
states(eg: In normal mode the previous operator counts will be restored).
Also fix a test in vim_spec.lua. The test had a wrong assumption: cmdheight is
only used to determine when the press enter screen will be shown, not to limit
how many lines or control pagination.
Sanity API checks made by the python-client in the api-python travis target were
converted to lua and will now live in this repository. This will simplify
performing breaking changes to the API as it won't be necessary to send parallel
PRs the python-client.
