Get empty 'Description on company-mode candidate #485

stardiviner · 2019-06-24T09:18:10Z

I press [F1] on company-mode candidate to get document. But it shows nothing. I then enable omnisharp-debug. Check out debug output log. Found the (Description) is empty.
Currently using Omnisharp-Roslyn. Does it support Description?

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

stardiviner · 2019-06-27T01:10:38Z

Any idea about this issue? If want more information, how can I debug deeper?

stardiviner · 2019-06-27T01:31:54Z

I created a new project through dotnet new console -o myApp on my Arch Linux machine.

Here is my *omnisharp-log* buffer output:

Hi @stardiviner ; Sorry for writing back so late.

Not sure how to approach the problem. omnisharp-emacs does provide Description to company-mode and and this feature does work for me on macOS/emacs 26.2.

Do you get other things working for you? What if you move over a symbol that has documentation and then invoke:

M-x omnisharp-current-type-documentation
or
M-x omnisharp-current-type-information?

Do you get something meaningful? It should show a tooltip-on-point on the symbol, like this:

stardiviner · 2019-07-04T01:43:53Z

I toggle ed omnisharp-debug. Here is the log in *omnisharp-log* buffer. when I execute upper two commands:

The second command did raise up a tooltip.
Seems it should work. But I still can't get document with [F1] on candidate. weird.

Gentil ping @razzmatazz :)

razzmatazz · 2019-12-21T12:23:16Z

Hi @stardiviner sorry for missing on your comment from July :E

The [F1] key does work for me, but I think you should look for /autocomplete request on the log, as this is what I get when omnisharp-emacs asks the server for autocompletion items after entering a '.' (dot):

[14:14:35] --> 332 /autocomplete ((Arguments (WantDocumentationForEveryCompletionResult . t) (WantMethodHeader . t) (WantReturnType . t) (WantSnippet . t) (WantImportableTypes . :json-false) (WordToComplete . #("Somet" 0 5 (fontified nil omnisharp-result ((CompletionText .

") (DisplayText . "Something()") (RequiredNamespaceImport) (MethodHeader . #("Something()" 0 11 (omnisharp-item #5 omnisharp-ann " : void" omnisharp-allow-templating t))) (ReturnType . "void") (Snippet . "Something();$0") (Kind . "Method") (IsSuggestionMode . :json-false) (Preselect . :json-false))))) (WantKind . t) (FileName . "/Users/bob/emacs/csharp-test/Program.cs") (Line .

        {

            Somet();
        }

        /// <summary>
        ///   Documentation for 'Something'

        static void Something()
        {
        }
    }
}
")) (Command . "/autocomplete") (Seq . 332))

Could you check what is your response from the server for the /autocomplete response?

razzmatazz · 2019-12-21T12:25:10Z

Btw, which server (omnisharp-roslyn) version are you using? Maybe there have been fixes for you particular toolset. Which .net core version/toolset are you using?

Could you search for you *omnisharp-log* for /autocomplete responses where Write is listed, as in your screenshot?

Also it can be that SDK you are using does not provide Console.WriteLine documentation to roslyn server (for some reason). Have you tried writing you own method in the file and annotating it with documentation and then try to autocomplete on that and see if that works?

Which version of .net SDK & omnisharp-roslyn you have installed?

dotnet --version - 2.2.108
System: Arch Linux
omnisharp-roslyn version: (I remember I downloaded from GitHub release page. time is around this issue time June 24, I checked, 1.32.20.)

stardiviner · 2019-12-21T14:26:39Z

I will take a try to update omnisharp-roslyn and try again.

razzmatazz · 2019-12-22T09:11:01Z

Hmm, while browsing omnisharp-roslyn repo, I think I found an issue reported with the server itself:

No documentation completion from standard framework libraries? omnisharp-roslyn#1667

This sounds exactly what you're encountering and it might just be language server issue.

stardiviner · 2019-12-22T09:59:02Z

Interesting, glad that finally located problem issue. I have not successly try new version omnisharp-rolysn yet because network issue of build.sh.
