I think this is the right design. As mentioned offline, I think we can now move the onDiagnostics call out from TUScheduler into ClangdServer (and remove onDiagnostics from the callbacks interface).
This is a better layer because the diagnostics callback model is really about how LSP treats diagnostics, and TUScheduler shouldn't have to care much (maybe one day this will even live in ClangdLSPServer).

I'd consider having the typedef be the full using PublishFn = llvm::function_ref<void(llvm::function_ref<void()>)>

That way the signature of onMainAST is simpler, and realistically people are going to understand how to call Publish by example.

I think we need to explain the API before apologising for it (explaining why it's this shape etc). And I think this is weird enough that an example would help.

Something like:

When information about the file (diagnostics, syntax highlighting) is published to clients,
this should be wrapped in Publish, e.g.
  void onMainAST(...) {
    Highlights = computeHighlights();
    Publish([&] { notifyHighlights(Path, Highlights); });
  }
This guarantees that clients will see results in the correct sequence if the file is concurrently closed
and/or reopened. (The lambda passed to Publish() may never run in this case).
  • Use the same mechanism for diagnostics
  • Change typedef to function<void(function<void()>)>
  • Update a comment
  • s/PublishResults/PublishFn
  • Reformat

  • Update usage of DiagsMu in a comment
  • Remove a leftover comment from the previous version

Thanks for all the suggestions. This is ready for the next round now.

Awesome, I think this is in better shape than before highlighting was added.

uber-nit: newline before this, as currently it's grouped with onPreambleAST rather than onMainAST
