v0.5.0-dev.1

Features

• Added the workspace-wide symbol search feature. The default shortcut for that in VS Code is LCtrl + T #53
• Added an ability to perform a symbol search in dependencies (including content0). This uses the workspace symbols feature described in the previous point and is enabled by default (languageServer.extendedSearchForWorkspaceSymbols setting) #54
• Added support for the array initializer syntax. Array type fields in WitcherScript can be default-initialized with the following syntax: default myArray = {value1, value2, value3};

Fixes

• Fixed missing lookup for methods and fields added through annotations

Configuration

• Added a setting to extend the workspace symbol search feature beyond the workspace and into dependencies #54

Other changes

• Redesigned the implementation of annotated symbols, which now should allow for using annotations with symbols declared inside the same package. It should also allow for the simultaneous use of @replaceMethod and @wrapMethod if that's useful. As a consequence, the same-content-annotation error code has been removed #49
• Rewrote syntax node traversal to prepare it for the implementation of autocompletion. Watch out for possible bugs in previously existing features and please report them!

Documentation

• Added information about script recompilation in editor features section
• Added information about symbol search in editor and workspace

v0.4.0

• Added context status bar item displaying name of the currently worked on script project. Clicking the item shows the command palette of all available WIDE commands #12
