EmmyLua
Adding a key to a global array in another file doesn't register the value type

What are the steps to reproduce this issue?（重现步骤？）
- Create a global with an array and a key containing an array, for exemple :
TEST = {}
TEST.firstKey = {}
- Go in another file and set a key to "firstKey" array :
TEST.firstKey.secondKey = "cool" - In the same second file (and any others) the secondKey will not give the string type
It would be a cool feature to have since I'm forced to work with this amount of keys.
Love your work
This is the latest emmylua bug, I don't know when it will be fixed, the author cut a lot of normal features to fix the crush problem, and I don't know when it will be fixed.
So if I understand correctly this was working someday. Do you know what commit caused the regression ? I'm exploring the project but I struggle a bit, this would be a precious information
This is a problem with the entire design. JetBrains does not allow certain computations during indexing, which can lead to freezes. To solve the freezing issue, EmmyLua can only cut off these contents. A more thorough solution is to not use IntelliJ's plugin mechanism but to use an independent backend to analyze the code, just like the CLion Nova.
