intellij-rust VS YouCompleteMe

We’ll also consider the cases when IntelliJ IDEA licenses were primarily bought for Rust development with the IntelliJ Rust plugin and which options we can suggest to our users in these cases. Please stay tuned!

Last time I tried this, the plugin was incapable of actually showing compile errors in the project view and they said their false positive error rate was too high to enable it (https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/pull/8373). That was a dealbreaker for me compared to VSCode.

Intellgi Rust is a good option.

Thank you all for the assist. Yep, not just a newbie issue which is surprising. :^) https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/issues/10483

Warning about Unused_labels and implementation of MIR Now things are getting interesting

Agreed. Specifically, I've found the intellij rust plugin on top of Clion to be great.

figure out testing, you probably want to structure your app in a way that allows you to run it in testing (Zero to Production has a great approach to that). There are helpers for testing like sqlx::test but CLion Rust plugin doesn't support them yet, it breaks code analysis (afaik the fix is not released yet).

Any closer to getting error highlighting on files working properly (https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/pull/8373)? That's a major benefit of rust-analyzer to me.

Could you please clarify whether the problem affects exactly local variables' values or function parameters' values? It is a known bug that the CLion's debugger cannot show function parameters' values on Windows: https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/issues/6676. This is a major issue and we are working on it. But if you are facing such problems in any other scenarios, please let us know and share a problematic code snippet if possible

For vim specifically, I've been using coc.nvim, which works pretty well for my needs, and I know its quite popular. Another fairly popular one is YouCompleteMe, which I had taken a look at for some other languages; but ended up just using coc as I can't justify using YCM once a year (if that) -- too much "headache" for not a lot of use, you know?

YouCompleteMe. A pretty good autocompletion plugin, though vim does have its own, somewhat useful built-in auto completion that requires more keystrokes

There are plugins to do semantic highlighting. I don't use any of them because I'm satisfied with Vim's native syntax highlighting and with tree-sitter (and also because I don't use LSPs), but searching for "Vim semantic highlighting" on DuckDuckGo yields this: https://github.com/ycm-core/YouCompleteMe. The highlighting used in its demo is too baroque for my taste, but looking at your VSCode screenshot, it looks like it would be right up your alley.

The plugin that is requiring Python3 is You Complete Me here is the link!! The Vundle link I was looking at is also in the body of my post.

I use vim for C++ coding, however it is a bit difficult to set up to make it productive. I use YouCompleteMe [0] for autocompletion, Vimspector [1] with the C++ plugin for debugging, ALE [2] for linting, along with a few other general plugins (such as NerdTREE for file view).

I didn't make a complete list of requirements :) This issue makes YCM uninteresting to me, so I've not dug too deep into it.

my favorite is YouCompleteMe.
