Parameters missing after completion

[winkj]

Hi there,

I've set up ycmd and most features work, however when I try to complete C++ functions the preview popup is correct, but after hitting enter (or selecting the item using the mouse) only the method name gets completed, but the parameters aren't.

Here's an example:
I started typing "cout.wr", and the completion shows correctly:

After hitting enter, "wr" is completed to "write", but the argument list isnt' included

Any ideas what this could be? The GIF you're showing doesn't have this behaviour.

This was possible when used with my own ycmd fork. However keeping that fork updated is quite tedious. I am trying to merge those changes into the upstream. ycm-core/ycmd#327

It is quite difficult to merge such a large refactor into the upstream of ycmd. Maybe I can resort to a little lexer for this.

Is it possible we add a ( in completion result when detected it is a function. It should be easier and helpful.
