Hi,

With the announcement of Qt Creator 4.8 Beta
<http://blog.qt.io/blog/2018/10/11/qt-creator-4-8-beta-released/> we can
see that it supports Microsoft's Language Server Protocol
<https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/>.

How far is CMake from having such support in server mode?

Stephen Kelly had this in his January 2016's CMake Daemon client
demonstration
Having watched
that video I feel the urge of compiling his code and having that tool today.

Having that level of integration makes everything else feel like editing in
Notepad.

If such support would be available in Qt Creator, and Visual Studio Code
etc., people wouldn't rant
<https://dorinlazar.ro/cough-short-cough-history-build-systems/> that much
about CMake's language or documentation.

Cheers,
Cristian.
