[ANN] ocaml-lsp-server 1.10.0

On behalf of the ocamllsp team, I’m pleased to announce version 1.10.0. The only new feature this release offers is better code folding, but there are some important bug fixes and performance improvements. If you encounter any sluggishness with our server, do not hesitate to report it.

Unless there are serious bugs with this release, this will be the last release for OCaml 4.13.

Happy Hacking.

Is there any chance that opened editor (for example, in vscode) will be updated if in background some other files will change? For example, we change preprocessing switches in dune file and highlighted errors appear/disappear automatically?

It’s on my TODO list. It will require running dune in watch mode though.

Running dune in watch mode is fine for me. Ping me, if you will need testers.

Thanks, I’ll keep you in mind. Don’t expect something immediately, but i would like to experiment with this for around 1.12.0.
