Re: language server protocol for Kawa

[Duncan Mak <duncanmak at gmail dot com>]

Hello Per,

i started doing this a few months ago, but I didn't get very far at all.

Perhaps it's because of how I tried to do it - I looked at
https://github.com/palantir/language-servers and
https://github.com/eclipse/lsp4j and tried to implement the
LanguageClientAware and LanguageServer interfaces.

The Groovy implementation is here -
https://github.com/palantir/language-servers/blob/develop/groovy-language-server/src/main/java/com/palantir/ls/groovy/GroovyLanguageServer.java

It was difficult to know if I'm making progress, because it seemed
like all the things needed to come together all at the same time.

If you're jumping into working on an LSP implementation, I'd love to
contribute on GitLab if you can post issues with tasks for others to
complete.
