Documentation pop-up not shown for reify and extend-type

Open mardukbp opened this issue 5 months ago • 2 comments

reify and extend-type are in clojure.core, but no documentation pop-up is shown on mouse hover.

Calva: 2.0.534 Clojure: 1.12.2.1565 VS Code: 1.104.1 OS: macOS 15.6.1

Hello. I wonder what could be different between yours and mine setup. I have the same versions and the hover is there:

Maybe there's something up with your project config? Can you try with a Calva mini Clojure project?

Please let me know how you fare. It's pretty strange that hover would be missing for these macros.

If I start a REPL in the project (dataspex) it works. I thought a REPL is not necessary for clojure.core. After all I get the documentation pop-up for defn, cond, let and so on.

I guess it has to do with caching. Does one have to start a REPL once in order to cache the documentation?
