[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Support for Microsoft Language Server Protocol? (#1854)

[elextr]

Its probably going to be easier to just have your own autocomplete dialog, the Geany version is provided by Scintilla, but populated by Geany, and is strongly linked to Geany's tags and symbols mechanism that you won't be using.  So its likely to be more complicated to modify to allow external input without breaking any existing functionality (havn't examined in detail, but reasonably suspect this is the case, especially as @codebrainz who is a Geany dev, found it easier).  

It is likely it would get the plugin up and running faster if you had your own, and compared to talking a protocol to language servers without blocking, GTK dialogs are likely to be a piece of cake :)
