Extend CMake language support in the IDE's Editor:

• Highlighting/recognition (on top of CMake simple highlighter and based on sophisticated syntax-aware algorithms) of such command arguments as:

• Variable's reference and definition (user-defined and cmake built-in);

• Properties (user-defined and cmake built-in);

• Targets reference and definition;

• Module's names;

• Command's named parameters (aka keyword arguments) for Scripting, Project and Utility Modules commands;

• Generator expressions;

• Path or Url structures;

• Policies (CMP<NNNN>).

• Variables, Properties and Targets navigation: Go to definition / Find usages (*see Notes).

• Variables, Properties and Targets completion (no scope recognition yet).

• Completion and quick-docs for variables, commands and it's parameters of Scripting Commands, Project Commands and Utility Modules commands (other commands support coming).

• Generator expressions quick docs and completion (no semantic rules yet).

• Parameters info for Scripting, Project and Utility Modules commands (use Ctrl/Cmd + P).

• Inlay Hints for Scripting, Project and Utility Modules command parameters (could be customised/disabled in Settings);

• Regex language injection is implemented based on command's signatures: highlighting and inspections provided by IDE built-in Regex language support;

• Folding regions for functions, macros, if/for/while blocks (pre-2022.3) and:

• Multiline brackets comments (pre-2022.3);

• Consequent single-line comments (pre-2022.3);

• Multiline function's arguments.

• "Comment with Line / Block Comment" (Ctrl + / and Shift + Ctrl + /) actions (pre-2022.3).

• Structure View (for the current file) with:

• Function/Macros declarations;

• Variable (re)definitions;

• Properties (re)definitions;

• Targets definitions;

• Filtering by Functions, Macros, Variables, Properties, Targets and Sorting alphabetical;

• Navigation in both directions (Structure View <-> Editor).

• Quick Documentation for CMake commands, modules, policies, properties, and variables. Clion's (or other IntelliJ IDE with built-in CMake support) Quick Docs priority given.

• Syntax and Operation inspections:

• Variable is set but never used;

• Usage of possibly not defined Variable;

• Builtin commands should be used in lowercase;

• End-of-block commands (else, endif, etc.) should not take arguments.

• Modules and Module's commands name case.

• Usage of CMake reserves identifiers.

• Unrecognized parameter by command signature.

• More parameters required by command signature.

• Edit | Extend/Shrink Selection for Variables and Generator expressions

• External Formatter integration added: developed for and tested with cheshirekow/cmake_format

Require CMake simple highlighter to be installed!

See Visual Overview for more details and screenshots.

*Note: Variables scope of visibility is partially implemented: simple Function and Directory scopes only. Block, PARENT, nested functions scopes, etc. cases are WIP.

*Note: Properties scope of visibility is not implemented yet, i.e. all properties within Project are shown as global.
