This commit replaces the heuristic parsing done by REPLCompletions.completions with a new approach that parses the entire input buffer once with JuliaSyntax. In addition to fixing bugs, the more precise parsing should allow for new features in the future. Some features now work in more situations "for free", like dictionary key completion (the expression evaluated to find the keys is now more precise) and method suggestions (arguments beyond the cursor can be used to narrow the list). The tests have been updated to reflect slightly differing behaviour for string and Cmd-string completion: the new code returns a character range encompassing the entire string when completing paths (not observable by the user), and the behaviour of '~'-expansion has be tweaked to be consistent across all places where paths can be completed. Some escaping issues have also been fixed. Fixes: JuliaLang#55420, JuliaLang#55518, JuliaLang#55520, JuliaLang#55842, JuliaLang#56389, JuliaLang#57611

Yes another REPL autocompletion bug in 1.12. On both 49263b7 (
release-1.12branch) and a5157c0 (master)doesn't complete anything. Can be reproduced with any
Module.Submodulename, not justBase.BinaryPlatforms, that's just an example. Removing the left-hand side of the assignment solves the issue. This is of course a regression, used to work correctly in v1.11-. I believe this is distinct from all other bugs I reported.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
