Could vaxe be made to take it less exact with errors?

Opened this issue · 4 comments

I often have the situation that my lime project compiles from the console (or by :make) but vaxe autocompletion reports errors.

Also, sometimes I want autocompletion also my project does currently not compile.

For example, when I import:

import haxe.ui.toolkit.core.interfaces.IDisplayObject;

I always get:

Class not found : haxe.ui.toolkit.core.interfaces.IDisplayObject

also the project compiles (and I can use IDisplayOject successfully).

There's been some changes with how lime manages build attributes. It doesn't seem like they get exported properly in the lime-generated hxml. I have questions in to Josh about it. See also #50

Mmmh, when I call haxe autocomplete from the command line like this:

haxe --display Source/NuggetaHandler.hx@199 ./Export/linux64/cpp/haxe/release.hxml

It gives valid results.
But when doing autocomplete in vim at the same position, it fails. Can I somehow output what exact command is used for invoking haxe when autocompleting?

I'm trying to revisit some of these stalled bugs, are you still having problems? I know that Josh just updated openfl.

Hey,

vaxe works pretty good for me. Sometimes I have to delete the generated hxml file ... wonder if vaxe could be made to auto-re-generate it when libs have changed?!?

Anyhow, what still would be cool, imagine this example:

import StupidClass;

class Test {

  public function test() {
    this.
  }
}

Stupid class does not exist and for that reason, the autocompletion at the "this." does not work. I often want to finish the code I am working on and correct the import later ...
