#### Goto Definition Request (:leftwards_arrow_with_hook:)
The go to definition request is sent from the client to the server to resolve the definition location of a symbol at a given text document position.
The result type [`LocationLink`](#locationLink)[] got introduced with version 3.14.0 and depends on the corresponding client capability `textDocument.definition.linkSupport`.
_Client Capability_:
* property name (optional): `textDocument.definition`
* property type: `DefinitionClientCapabilities` defined as follows:
```typescript
export interface DefinitionClientCapabilities {
/**
* Whether definition supports dynamic registration.
*/
dynamicRegistration?: boolean;
/**
* The client supports additional metadata in the form of definition links.
*
* @since 3.14.0
*/
linkSupport?: boolean;
}
```
_Server Capability_:
* property name (optional): `definitionProvider`
* property type: `boolean | DefinitionOptions` where `DefinitionOptions` is defined as follows:
```typescript
export interface DefinitionOptions extends WorkDoneProgressOptions {
}
```
_Registration Options_: `DefinitionRegistrationOptions` defined as follows:
```typescript
export interface DefinitionRegistrationOptions extends
TextDocumentRegistrationOptions, DefinitionOptions {
}
```
_Request_:
* method: `textDocument/definition`
* params: `DefinitionParams` defined as follows:
```typescript
export interface DefinitionParams extends TextDocumentPositionParams,
WorkDoneProgressParams, PartialResultParams {
}
```
_Response_:
* result: [`Location`](#location) \| [`Location`](#location)[] \| [`LocationLink`](#locationLink)[] \| `null`
* partial result: [`Location`](#location)[] \| [`LocationLink`](#locationLink)[]
* error: code and message set in case an exception happens during the definition request.
