Danny Tuppeny c8ab18f13e [analysis_server] Improve the display of unnamed extensions in LSP Outline, Document Symbols
We previously just showed "<unnamed extension>" for extensions without names, but in some files I noticed we have a lot of these, and the outline/symbols list looks awful (just "<unnamed extension>" repeated many times).

This changes it to instead show "extension on FooClass" instead (if there is a valid type name). I added a new field to the protocol to support this because the LSP classes convert from those classes (something we've discussed changing, but might be easier later).

Screenshots of before/after are in https://github.com/Dart-Code/Dart-Code/issues/5818

package:analysis_server_client is a client wrapper over the Analysis Server.

Update: this package has been discontinued

This package has been discontinued and will not receive further updates.

People who need similar functionality could:

  • continue to use the last published version; it should continue to be able to talk to the analysis server for the foreseeable future
  • fork the package and maintain that fork (we don't expect that the analysis server protocol will evolve significantly)
  • see if their use case could instead be satisfied by talking to the analysis server over the LSP protocol (dart language-server --protocol=lsp)

We welcome feedback about this at #50262; that would also be a good place to discuss alternatives.

Overview

  • Instances of Server manage a connection to an analysis server process, and facilitate communication to and from the server.

  • The Protocol library provides constants and classes to build requests for the server and decode responses and notifications from the server.

Example

The example uses the Server to launch the analysis server, analyze all *.dart files in the specified directory, display the results, and shutdown the analysis server.
