New & Noteworthy 1.1

Code analysis

Tables are a key concept of Lua. It is mandatory for Koneki LDT to handle them right to enable you to code at ease.

Table Detection

We managed to summarize #tables nicely in outline. It is obviously now possible to enjoy table content.

  • Fields
  • Functions or Methods
  • Nested tables

Note:' If you click on #table fields, you will get code navigation to their definition.

Module Detection

Turn your table into a module quite simple: it is simply return it. As below.

Natural Completion On Strings

It now possible to trigger completion on #string variable without using the string module. You have completion for mystring:sub(...).

Better Error Handling

To speed up syntax error troubleshooting, the output given is now the Lua 5.1 interpreter one. During the process, syntax error detection became about 10 times faster.

Formatter Defaults

For a better out of the box experience, formatter now uses Lua's 2 spaces indentation standard by default.

Smarter Auto Close

Auto close got smarter and feels more natural. It is a silent improvement. If you did not notice it, it indicates it works just fine.
