complete: show identifier information after completion is done

[fatih]

This is a new feature that prints the information of the completed identifier in statusline. This is experimental.

closes #663

[kodek]

This is exactly what I'm looking for, but it seems to be a bit glitchy at the moment. I generally use tab to select a match, then I type the opening parenthesis to close the autocomplete list. If I do that, the function signature does not show up. How are you triggering the autocomplete of "" and the opening/closing parentheses?

Also, I had to set noshowmode to hide the overlapping mode status. Powerline shows it anyway.

[fatih]

@kodek push a better approach. Now it's much more efficient and should just work out of the box. Can you please test and return me your thoughts ?

[kodek]

Not working at all right now :( Let me know if there's anything you'd like me to test.

[remeh]

Is it also bound on a command (e.g. GoSignature) or is it only on auto-complete ? Anyway, great feature!

[fatih]

@remeh it's all automatically. It works perfect for me and actually all I do is echoing the current completion from the cache. There is no magic, but the statusline is a place that many other plugins, sub systems of vim uses. So even though I display it, it might be overwritten meanwhile by something else. So it's tricky :)

I think the check of CompleteDone is needed.
if exists('##CompleteDone')

[fatih]

Yeah definitely @Shougo 👍 Should it not with one # ? Your example has two ##. If yes why it is that way ?

[Shougo]

##event is the check of the event is supported.
From :help exists():

            ##event     autocommand for this event is
                    supported.

[fatih]

Ok, thanks! Fixed now.

[kodek]

I think my issue is related to a YCM conflict. I just realized I might be using the wrong autocomplete engine. Trying to fix, but I'll report back. Sorry!

[gonzaloserrano]

@kodek i'm also using YCM and i must have the info beeing overwritten so if you find the reason please share 👍

Btw, I have been searching for this fix/feature for months! Man, was it buried down deep in the Closed issues. This should be on the Homepage as a feature!

Now, onto the issue...

I can't seem to get this to work. Vim acts normally:

• no match # of # ever shows up while scrolling through the C-x C-o menu options.
• -- INSERT -- remains in the statusline at all times.
• selecting fmt.Printf from the omnicomplete menu does not insert the parameters.

Tried a few random things:

• disabled neocomplete
• disabled omnicomplete's completeopt changes, the "Preview" buffer came back.
• had several omnicomplete tweaks (inoremap), disabled all.
• saw issues with symlinks and vim; moved my /USB/HDD/go/src/... to ~/go/src/... (no more symlinks)
• disabling vim-sensible

For testing, I closed VIM each time and attempted reopen and edit a known .go file with known local func()s as well as accessing some of the standard library packages (os, fmt), and some other packages I wrote in my github location.

Nada.

One thing to note: :GoDoc doesn't seem to be able to find anything in my GOPATH; it only finds documentation for std lib stuff.

EDIT: I noticed that if I insert this into my .vimrc, that match # of # now shows along with the func definition:

set noshowmode

I have vim-sensible setup the defaults for my .vimrc; so, perhaps it has showmode or alike.

^- while that has been fixed, I still do not get the auto-completion of the "" when selecting fmt.Printf() from the autocomplete.
