## Summary - **Extract `Indexer` class** — owns all index state (ProjectIndex, MergedIndex shards, OpenFileIndex) and query methods (definition, references, call/type hierarchy, workspace symbol search) - **Extract `Compiler` class** — owns document state, PCH/PCM cache, compile argument resolution, header context, `ensure_compiled`, and worker forwarding - **MasterServer is now a pure LSP handler registration layer** (~700 lines, down from ~3200) - **`MergedIndexShard`** wraps `index::MergedIndex` with a lazily-cached PositionMapper; `OpenFileIndex` gains matching `find_occurrence()`/`find_relations()` APIs — callers get pre-converted LSP ranges directly - **Indexer returns typed values** (`vector<Location>`, `vector<CallHierarchyIncomingCall>`, etc.) instead of pre-serialized JSON, fixing the references handler from JSON string surgery to simple vector concatenation - **Fix**: duplicate `workspace/symbol` loop in the original code ## Test plan - [x] 465 unit tests pass - [x] 113 integration tests pass - [x] 2/2 smoke tests pass - [x] `clang-format` applied 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Server-side C++ compilation orchestration (module & precompiled header builds) with LSP-integrated document handling. * **Improvements** * Deterministic, persistent, dependency-aware caching to avoid redundant rebuilds and speed up incremental work. * Better cross-file indexing and navigation, improved diagnostics and more reliable include/import-aware completions. * **Tests** * Unit tests updated to the unified worker query/build request shapes. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
clice
clice is a next-generation language server designed for modern C++. Through excellent asynchronous task scheduling and intelligent caching, it achieves a lower memory footprint and faster response times.
Beyond performance, clice provides instantiation-aware template processing, supports switching header contexts between different source files (including non-self-contained headers), and offers comprehensive support for C++20 modules, from code completion to go-to-definition. Our goal is to provide C++ developers with a truly fast, precise, and intelligent development companion.
Important
Support for header contexts and C++20 modules are core features currently under active development. They will be progressively refined in upcoming releases. Stay tuned!
Getting started
Download the latest clice binary from the releases page and install the vscode extension. Then, add the following configuration to your .vscode/settings.json file:
{
// Optional: Set this to an empty string to turn off the clangd.
"clangd.path": "",
// Point this to the clice binary you downloaded.
"clice.executable": "/path/to/your/clice/executable",
}
Note
As an early version, please do not use it in a production environment. Crashes are expected, and we welcome you to submit issues.
