My nvim autocomplete window is not coming up when editing C++ code.
I've been trying to follow this debugging guideline but I haven't had much success. I'm using the Kythe language server configured as follows in coc-settings.json:
{
"languageserver": {
"kythe": {
"command": "/full/path/omitted/kythe_languageserver",
"filetypes": ["python", "go", "java", "cpp", "cc", "c++", "proto"],
"trace.server" : "verbose"
}
}
}
When opening a C++ file and running :CocList services, I can see that the language server has started:
languageserver.kythe [running] python, go, java, cpp, cc, c++, proto
And indeed in the :CocCommand workspace.showOutput, there are messages indicating a successful initialization:
[Trace - 4:45:05 PM] Received response 'initialize - (0)' in 264ms.
Result: {
"capabilities": {
"textDocumentSync": 1,
"hoverProvider": true,
"definitionProvider": true,
"referencesProvider": true
}
}
One thought, is there a missing capability here that is required for autocomplete to come up? In any case, when I edit the file and try to, for example, type std:: expecting some form of autocompletion for that namespace, nothing happens and the only messages sent to the language server seem to be as follows:
[Trace - 4:45:47 PM] Sending notification 'textDocument/didChange'.
Params: {
"textDocument": {
"uri": "[redacted]",
"version": 4
},
"contentChanges": [
{
"text": "[redacted]"
}
]
}
From my limited knowledge, I'm pretty sure that autocompletion also requires a different message type to be sent to the language server, no? textDocument/didChange seems to be only for updating the state.

Kythe language server does not support auto complete capabilities as of yet.
