...in order to retrieve highlights.
Added test/functional/api/highlight_spec.lua
HL_NORMAL is not really a good name, since it's more like an empty attribute than the normal's one.
If one pays attention, syn_cterm_attr2entry is never called with attr=0 because it's always special cased before.
I suggest in subsequent PRs we remove the ATTR_OFF and just insert an EMPTY ATTR/RESET_ATTR/UNINITIALIZED for id 0.
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"

Hope this will make people using feed_command less likely: this hides bugs.
Already found at least two:
1. msgpackparse() will show internal error: hash_add() in case of duplicate
keys, though it will still work correctly. Currently silenced.
2. ttimeoutlen was spelled incorrectly, resulting in option not being set when
expected. Test was still functioning somehow though. Currently fixed.
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.
When the buffer that nvim_buf_set_lines() is changing is not in any vim
window, fix_cursor() leads to calling ml_get_buf() with an invalid line
number. The condition that fix_cursor() was called on was (buf ==
curbuf), but this is always true because of the call to
switch_to_win_for_buf() earlier in the function.
Instead this should be predicated on (save_curbuf.br_buf == NULL)
- Default to powershell.
- Avoid hardcoded "-c".
- Remove ^M character from received lines.
- pending_win32(): clear() is unnecessary and it pollutes the tests.
Closes#3973

API level is disconnected from NVIM version. The API metadata holds the
current API level, and the lowest backwards-compatible level supported
by this instance.
Release 0.1.6 is the first release that reports the Nvim version and API
level.
metadata['version'] = {
major: 0,
minor: 1,
patch: 6,
api_level: 1,
api_compatible: 0,
api_prerelease: false,
}
The API level may remain unchanged across Nvim releases if the API has
not changed.
When changing the API,
- set NVIM_API_PRERELEASE to true
- increment NVIM_API_LEVEL (at most once per Nvim version)
- adjust NVIM_API_LEVEL_COMPAT if backwards-compatibility was broken
api_level_0.mpack was generated from Nvim 0.1.5 with:
nvim --api-info

The API level may remain unchanged across Neovim releases if the API has
not changed.
When changing the API the CMake variable NVIM_API_PRERELEASE is set to
true, and NVIM_API_CURRENT/NVIM_API_COMPATIBILITY are incremented
accordingly.
The functional tests check the API table against fixtures of past
versions of Neovim. It compares all the functions in the old table with
the new one, it does ignore some metadata attributes that do not alter
the function signature or were removed since 0.1.5. Currently the only
fixture is 0.mpack, generated from Neovim 0.1.5 with nvim --api-info.
In order to provide better compatibility with the classic bindings, the
API needs to provide the ability to query the number (really index) of
the window/tabpage.
This is needed for neovim/python-client#87, as discussed in
neovim/neovim#1898.
