Felix Krause, Dr. Timm Felden Commenced: April 9, 2018 Completed: October 9, 2018 Abstract Language analysis features offered by integrated development environments (IDEs) can ease and accelerate the task of writing code, but are often not available for domain-specific languages. The Language Server Protocol (LSP) aims to solve this problem by allowing language servers that support these features for a certain programming language to be used portably in a number of IDEs. A language server for Serialization Killer Language (SKilL) was implemented that supports a multitude of language features including automatic formatting, completion suggestions, and display of references and documentation associated with symbols. This thesis presents how the language server was implemented and discusses associated challenges that arose due to the nature of the SKilL and LSP specification. 3 Kurzfassung Sprachunterstützungen von IDEs können Programmierern ihre Arbeit deutlich erleichtern, jedoch werden diese oft nicht für domänenspezifische Sprachen unterstützt. Das LSP erlaubt Unterstützun- gen für eine Sprache durch einen Language Server zu implementieren, der anschließend in einer Vielzahl an IDEs nutzbar ist. Es wurde ein Language Server für SKilL implementiert, mit dem unter anderem Code automatisch formatiert, Vervollständigungen vorgeschlagen sowie Verweise und Dokumentation angezeigt werden kann.

  • An LSP Infrastructure to Build EMF Language Servers for Web-Deployable Model Editors⋆
    An LSP infrastructure to build EMF language servers for Web-deployable model editors? Roberto Rodriguez-Echeverria1, Javier Luis Canovas´ Izquierdo2, Manuel Wimmer3, and Jordi Cabot4 1 Quercus SEG, Universidad de Extremadura, Caceres,´ Spain [email protected] 2 UOC, Barcelona, Spain [email protected] 3 CDL-MINT, TU Wien, Vienna, Austria [email protected] 4 ICREA – UOC, Barcelona, Spain [email protected] Abstract. The development of modern IDEs is still a challenging and time- consuming task, which requires implementing the support for language-specific features such as syntax highlighting or validation. When the IDE targets a graph- ical language, its development becomes even more complex due to the rendering and manipulation of the graphical notation symbols. To simplify the development of IDEs, the Language Server Protocol (LSP) proposes a decoupled approach based on language-agnostic clients and language-specific servers. LSP clients communicate changes to LSP servers, which validate and store language in- stances. However, LSP only addresses textual languages (i.e., character as atomic unit) and neglects the support for graphical ones (i.e., nodes/edges as atomic units). In this paper, we introduce a novel LSP infrastructure to simplify the de- velopment of new graphical modeling tools, in which Web technologies may be used for editor front-ends while leveraging existing modeling frameworks to build language servers. More concretely, in this work, we present the architecture of our LSP infrastructure, based on LSP4J, to build EMF-based graphical language servers. Keywords: Domain-Specific Languages, Language Server Protocol, Modeling Editors 1 Introduction In the last years, there is an increasing interest to move the modeling editing support to the Web (e.g., Eclipse Che5 or Theia6), which gives new opportunities, but at the same time, opens new risks and challenges.

  • A Language Server and IDE Plugin for Cpachecker

Eidesstattliche Erkl¨arung Hiermit versichere ich, dass ich die vorliegende Arbeit selbst¨andigver- fasst habe und keine anderen als die angegebenen Quellen und Hilfsmittel verwendet habe. Ort, Datum Unterschrift 1 Abstract Formal verification of software is an useful addition to testing when trying to eliminate unwanted behavior and errors. Multiple approaches for formal verification exist, such as model checking or program analysis, for which a multitude of different tools exist. CPAchecker is a tool that makes it possible to combine advantages of both model checking and program analysis, and can be extended to include new verification ideas. With modern powerful, feature rich In- tegrated Development Environments (IDEs), most development tools are easy to integrated into a development workflow, but most verifi- cation tools are only available as commandline tools or via web inter- faces. The solution proposed is an implementation of formal verification into IDEs with the help of the Language Server Protocol (LSP). This is realized by implementing the interfacing with CPAchecker as a LSP server, with accompanying plug-in for an IDE, for which Eclipse CDT for C/C++ Developers was chosen. The implementation is based on the Microsoft LSP, which means it can be used to implement the func- tionality for other IDEs with less effort.

  • Moving Model Driven Engineering from Eclipse to Web Technologies
    Moving Model Driven Engineering from Eclipse to Web Technologies Sören Domrös Master’s Thesis November 15, 2018 Prof. Dr. Reinhard von Hanxleden Real-Time and Embedded Systems Group Department of Computer Science Kiel University Advised by Alexander Schulz-Rosengarten Selbstständigkeitserklärung Hiermit erkläre ich, dass ich die vorliegende Arbeit selbstständig verfasst und keine anderen als die angegebenen Quellen und Hilfsmittel verwendet habe. Kiel, iii Abstract Eclipse is a popular IDE for model-driven-development. It is a current trend to move IDEs to the web. Web technologies enable to use flexible frameworks for UI development. Moreover, they enable container-based development. An IDE can be used in the web with nothing more than a browser with zero configuration and setup time. Web IDEs need separation between business logic and UI, which is not facilitated by Eclipse. The academic KIELER project is an Eclipse-based IDE for model-driven engineering of SCCharts and other synchronous languages. KIELER can only run as a desktop application and still uses a SWT-based UI. A migration to web technologies seems promising and provides new opportunities for Human Computer Interaction (HCI). Web technologies enable to design applications, which run in the web or locally as an Electron app. In this thesis the Theia framework is used to migrate KIELER from Eclipse to a client server archi- tecture called KEITH using the Language Server Protocol (LSP). The already existing implementation of KIELER is reused to generate a language server backend using Xtext. The LSP and Xtext allow to support KIELER and KEITH development at the same time.

Rust is a language with an ownership model where lifetimes are statically resolved and it has macro support. In this thesis we develop algorithms and implementations for the Extract Method and Box Field refactorings for Rust. Automated refactoring tools are often not correct. Here we compose the refactorings by smaller micro refactorings which can easily be understood independently. We ran the implementation on open source projects, identified problems with lifetimes, and handled it correctly. v vi Contents 1 Introduction 1 2 Background 5 2.1 Compiler theory for refactoring . .5 2.2 The Rust programming language . .6 2.2.1 Structs . .6 2.2.2 Functions . .6 2.2.3 Types . .6 2.2.4 Ownership and borrowing . .7 2.2.5 Packages, Crates and Modules . .8 2.2.6 Cargo . .8 2.2.7 Declarative Macros . .9 2.2.8 Procedural Macros . .9 2.3 Refactoring support for Rust . 10 2.3.1 Rust language server . 10 2.3.2 Clippy . 11 2.3.3 Rustfmt .

  • The Specification Language Server Protocol
    The Specification Language Server Protocol: A Proposal for Standardised LSP Extensions Jonas Kjær Rask Frederik Palludan Madsen Nick Battle DIGIT, Aarhus University, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Independent Finlandsgade 22, 8200 Aarhus N, Denmark [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Hugo Daniel Macedo Peter Gorm Larsen DIGIT, Aarhus University, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Finlandsgade 22, 8200 Aarhus N, Denmark [email protected] [email protected] The Language Server Protocol (LSP) changed the field of Integrated Development Environments (IDEs), as it decouples core (programming) language features functionality from editor smarts, thus lowering the effort required to extend an IDE to support a language. The concept is a success and has been adopted by several programming languages and beyond. This is shown by the emergence of several LSP implementations for the many programming and specification languages (languages with a focus on modelling, reasoning, or proofs). However, for such languages LSP has been ad-hocly extended with the additional functionalities that are typically not found for programming languages and thus not supported in LSP. This foils the original LSP decoupling goal, because the move towards a new IDE requires yet another re-implementation of the ad-hoc LSP extension. In this paper we contribute with a conservative extension of LSP providing a first proposal towards a standard protocol decoupling the support of specification languages from the IDE. We hope our research attracts the larger community and motivates the need of a joint task-force leading to a standardised LSP extension serving the particular needs of specification languages.

  • The Impact of the Language Server Protocol on Textual Domain-Specific Languages
    Decoupling Language and Editor - The Impact of the Language Server Protocol on Textual Domain-Specific Languages Hendrik Bunder¨ itemis AG, Bonn, Germany Keywords: Textual Domain-Specific Languages, Model-Driven Development, Language Server Protocol, Case Study. Abstract: Model-Driven Software Development using Domain-Specific Languages (DSL) has been widely adopted throughout research and industry. The language workbenches required to efficiently build Domain-Specific Languages and the associated editor support are often deeply integrated into a specific Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Thereby, the chosen Domain-Specific Language workbench predicts the IDE required to use the DSL. Yet, this IDE might not be the best choice for further implementing, testing, and debugging the generated code. A case study was conducted to analyze how the Language Server Protocol could be utilized to decouple the DSL implementation from a specific editor integrated into an IDE. First, the Language Server Protocol capabilities are exemplified by building editor support for an Entity-DSL that is integrated into two different IDEs. Second, a SWOT analysis is carried out to identify strengths and weaknesses as well as oppor- tunities and threats for Domain-Specific Languages utilizing the Language Server Protocol. The case study’s results indicate that the Language Server Protocol enables efficient multi-editor integration. Further, the results of the SWOT analysis imply potential benefits for cross-functional teams specifying a shared domain model. 1 INTRODUCTION liJ (JetBrains, 2018) or Eclipse (Vogel and Beaton, 2013).
