.Fields
optionalstaleRequestSupport:Null<{retryOnContentModified:Array<String>, cancel:Bool}>
Client capability that signals how the client handles stale requests (e.g. a request for which the client will not process the response anymore since the information is outdated).
3.17.0
.optionalregularExpressions:Null<RegularExpressionsClientCapabilities>
Client capabilities specific to regular expressions.
3.16.0
.optionalpositionEncodings:Null<Array<PositionEncodingKind>>
The position encodings supported by the client. Client and server have to agree on the same position encoding to ensure that offsets (e.g. character position in a line) are interpreted the same on both side.
To keep the protocol backwards compatible the following applies: if the value 'utf-16' is missing from the array of position encodings servers can assume that the client supports UTF-16. UTF-16 is therefore a mandatory encoding.
If omitted it defaults to ['utf-16'].
Implementation considerations: since the conversion from one encoding into another requires the content of the file / line the conversion is best done where the file is read which is usually on the server side.
3.17.0
.optionalmarkdown:Null<MarkdownClientCapabilities>
Client capabilities specific to the client's markdown parser.
