      I am not sure if this makes sense, as the “whole world of programming languages” has allowed itself to be pushed towards an LSP solution.

        @ekopalypse My solution based on current implementation of autocompletion in NPP /Scrilla. It’s easy to realize/integrate to NPP unlike LSP. You can add adapter for language server too.

          The problem I see is that this would mean that every “language adapter” would have to provide this new protocol, and I don’t see that happening anytime soon now that there is this defacto standard called LSP, but who knows …

            @wintersilence said in Custom/user adapters for autocompletion:

            I suggest adding support for custom/user auto-completion adapters.

            Есть обходные варианты:

            см. “How to show autocompletition list box”

                  @ekopalypse protocol is protocol, adapter is… adapter. I don’t vote to extending text editor into IDE. It’s just simple solution to customize autocompletion - add to NPP will not so long. You can writes adapters not only for languages - it’s useful to insert paths or snippets.

                  External tools in PhpStorm IDE as example of adapters implementation.

                    Please don’t get me wrong, I have no objections to your idea, it sounds reasonable.
                    The problem I see is that none of the “existing(?)” adapters know about an Npp-related interface yet, so they would have to adapt to it. Why would they be interested in doing this?
                    Or is this already some kind of standard that I haven’t heard about?
                    Btw, if you want this to happen at all, I would suggest opening a feature request at github, that should increase the likelihood, though I’m still skeptical about such a solution.

                      Adapter is bridge between NPP and third party software. User write adapter locally or copy existed adapter from some repository.
                      Example of adapter of implementation in Ace editor:

                        too can help you discover how it’s can work and plug to editor
