1 # History of user-visible changes

3 ## 2013-03-23 (0.6.1)
4
5 * Documented `init` and `post-completion` back-end commands.
6 * `company-eclim` and `company-clang` only expand the template on explicit user
7 action (such as `company-complete-{selection,number,mouse}`).
8 * `company-template` has some breaking changes. When point is at one of the
9 fields, it's displayed at the beginning, not right after it; `<tab>` jumps to
10 the next field, `forward-word` and `subword-forward` remappings are removed;
11 when you jump to the next field, if the current one hasn't been edited, the
12 overlay gets removed but the text remains.
13 * `company-eclim` shows method overloads and expands templates for calls.
14 * `company-clang-objc-templatify` does not insert spaces after colons anymore.
15 * `company-clang` is now only initialized in supported buffers.
16 So, no error messages if you don't have Clang until you open a C file.
17 * `company-clang` recognizes Clang included in recent Xcode.
18 * New commands `company-select-previous-or-abort` and
19 `company-select-next-or-abort`, bound to `<up>` and `<down>`.

22
23 * Across-the-board bugfixing.
24 * `company-pysmell` is not used by default anymore.
25 * Loading of `nxml`, `semantic`, `pymacs` and `ropemacs` is now deferred.
26 * Candidates from grouped back-ends are merged more conservatively: only
27 back-ends that return the same prefix at point are used.
28 * `company-clang` now shows meta information, too.
29 * Some performance improvements.
30 * Fixed two old tooltip annoyances.
31 * Instead of `overrriding-terminal-local-map`, we're now using
32 `emulation-mode-map-alists` (experimental). This largely means that when the
33 completion keymap is active, other minor modes' keymaps are still used, so,
34 for example, it's not as easy to accidentally circumvent `paredit-mode`
35 when it's enabled.
36 * `company-elisp` has seen some improvements.
37 * Added `company-capf`: completion adapter using
38 `completion-at-point-functions`. (Stefan Monnier)
39 * Clang completions now include macros and are case-sensitive.
40 * Switching between tag files now works correctly with `company-etags`.
41
42 ## 2010-02-24 (0.5)
43
44 * `company-ropemacs` now provides location and docs. (Fernando H. Silva)
45 * Added `company-with-candidate-inserted` macro.
46 * Added `company-clang` back-end.
47 * Added new mechanism for non-consecutive insertion.
48 (So far only used by clang for ObjC.)
49 * The semantic back-end now shows meta information for local symbols.
50 * Added compatibility for CEDET in Emacs 23.2 and from CVS. (Oleg Andreev)
51
52 ## 2009-05-07 (0.4.3)
53
54 * Added `company-other-backend`.

57
58 ## 2009-04-25 (0.4.2)
59
60 * In C modes . and -> now count towards `company-minimum-prefix-length`.
61 * Reverted default front-end back to `company-preview-if-just-one-frontend`.
62 * The pseudo tooltip will no longer be clipped at the right window edge.
63 * Added `company-tooltip-minimum`.
64 * Windows compatibility fixes.
