New & Noteworthy 1.1
Table Detection
Tables are a key concept of Lua. It is mandatory for Koneki LDT to handle them right to enable you to code at ease. So, we managed to summarize them nicely in outline.
Table Detection
It is now possible to use table content, such as:
- Fields
- Functions or methods
- Nested tables
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(...).
#string variable from assignment
#string variable from explicit typingBetter 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.
