  • How to make it so my variable names are highlighted?
    3 projects | /r/vim | 12 Nov 2022
    By looking around the Web, I think you can maybe do what you want in Vim with this plugin, which requires you to setup an LSP server for C (note: I haven't tried it). Otherwise, the way Vim makes its syntax highlighting (natively) simply cannot compete with tree-sitter or LSP-based highlighting which construct the entire AST of your code, because C's syntax is too complex. There is a proposal to include an alternative syntax highlighting system, but work on it hasn't even started as far as I know, so vim-lsp-cxx-highlight and tree-sitter are really the only way to highlight identifiers in C/C++.
  • How do I use ifdef-highlighting
    4 projects | /r/vim | 1 Sep 2021
    I use coc.nvim with e.g. coc-clangd extension (with https://github.com/jackguo380/vim-lsp-cxx-highlight for extra highlighting, but that might not be necessary anymore with some recent update I think I read somewhere) which has a similar feature, but uses the compiler settings from a compile_commands.json or some configuration file to know which defines are which value, to do this kind of ifdef block highlighting.
  • Seeking for advice on a particular LSP setup
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 30 Aug 2021
    I was abled to build ccls on a RHEL 6 machine which also supports semantic highlighting with the help of this plugin. Would suggest to try that out.
