YCMD

This contrib layer adds emacs-ycmd support. In order to use this layer you must have a local ycmd installation and must set the ycmd-server-command variable to reflect the path to that installation. See the emacs-ycmd Readme for more instructions on this.

This package also requires the company-mode layer in order to get actual completion rather than just flychecking and key bindings.

Key Bindings

Adds the SPC m g go to definition binding to c++-mode as well as SPC m G for the more imprecise but faster version.

Configuration

By default this layer only activates ycmd for c++-mode so company can provide completion that is better than mere keyword completion for all the modes it would otherwise add itself to. If you want ycmd in all sorts of other modes then put this snippet in your dotspacemacs init function:

(setq ycmd/all-the-modes t)

otherwise you might just want to add it for specific languages like:

(add-hook 'c++-mode-hook 'ycmd-mode)
