The team also improved the automatic addition of imports when copying between files. Last release had unfortunate bugs related to that functionality.

Another great feature is the automatic creation of configuration in launch.json file when running or debugging using code lenses.

This makes it much easier for users to know how to add additional arguments or properties. They just need to modify the created entry.

This version improves the Java support by adding:
- signature help when writing methods
- go to definition using the compiler instead of only semanticdb
- rename, references and document highlight now also use the Java compiler for increased accuracy in non compiling code.

We already have PoC available if anyone wants to give it a try! Take a look at github.com/tgodzik/met... for the details.
