LPC Config v2 Breaking Changes

The rewrite of the language server for version 2 necessitated some breaking config file changes. This document outlines how to migrate your lpc-config.json file.

The following config options were renamed:

• include is now libInclude
• files is now libFiles
• diagnostics should now be set to either "on" or "off"
• mudlibDir was removed, see below.

Adding files to your project (or, what happened to mudlibDir?)

To place your lpc-config file in a folder other than your lib's root directory, you need to tell it how to locate lib files. The include setting tells the compiler where those files are located and can be either a relative path (from the location of your config file) or a disk rooted path. The first entry in this array will be used as your "lib root" folder.

Example:

For example, let's say your project is structured thus:

MyProj
|- settings
|  |- lpc-config.json
|- lib
|  |- std
|  |  |- simul_efun.c
|  |- rooms
|  |  |- entrance.c
|  |- admin

In this case, your config file should read:

{
    "include": ["../lib"],
    ...
}
