nvim-dap-virtual-text VS lsp-inlayhints.nvim

https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap + https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text should be able to do it, I think?

There's a nice dap plugin for neovim nvim-dap-virtual-text that shows the values of local variables as like a tooltip next to them in the source as you're debugging. CIDER (clojure mode for emacs) has a a similar mode you could look at for ideas how to implement in elisp

Lastly, I use a plugin that at runtime evaluates the state of your program (e.g. what value is assigned to this variable? Which is handy especially when you're stepping through a loop -- see screenshots in linked repo) https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text

Using a combination of https://github.com/mfussenegger/nvim-dap, with https://github.com/rcarriga/nvim-dap-ui and https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text

Nvim-Dap-Virtual-Text Gives us nice information

- https://github.com/theHamsta/nvim-dap-virtual-text - cool feature for debugging

Thanks for the reply! I also wanted to make it work with clangd, but it won't. I stumbled upon this issue. Maybe you have enough knowledge to figure this out, I don't know how to set up this compilation database. I installed clangd using Mason, and configured it via lspconfig basically the same way as the guy in the issue I linked did. Also, I'm using the newest nightly.

I don't understand why inlay hints must be implemented in a rust-specific plugin. https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim exists, has support for inline inlay hints (on a separate branch for now) and works with rust (and should work any language server since inlay hints are part of the spec). Am I missing something?

To use inlay hints in typescript an rust you would need this plugin: https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim It provides example in the readme on how to setup inlay hints for typescript and rust. For now the master brach has "old" inlay hints implementation but there is a branch that implement new one. And of course you will need nightly version for that for now.

But it doesn't seem to work. I also tried lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim with no luck. Any advice of how to properly enable this feature when ocamllsp server is attached? Thank you in advance.

I have inlay hints working in nvim with lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim, no special configuration other than the LspAttach block from their README. The caveat is that your LSP server has to support inlay hints.

The second one might be https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim

you can use nvim-lspcofig for LSP support, mason.nvim for installing LSP servers, linters, formatters and debug adapters. nvim-cmp for completions, luasnip for snippets, null-ls for configuring your formatter and linters , lsp-inlayhints for inlay hints.

Inlay hints are available through rust-tools.nvim, or lsp-inlayhints.nvim.

iirc, inlay hints aren't supported by nvim's built-in LSP, but you can get them with the inlay-hints plugin: https://github.com/lvimuser/lsp-inlayhints.nvim (if the LSP for omnisharp also supports them)
