having the error shown in the minibuffer instead of function signatures

`
(with-eval-after-load 'eglot
(add-to-list 'eglot-server-programs
'((c-mode c++-mode cuda-mode)
. ("clangd-15"
"-j=8"
"--log=error"
"--malloc-trim"
"--background-index"
"--clang-tidy"
"--cross-file-rename"
"--completion-style=detailed"
"--pch-storage=memory"
"--header-insertion=never"
"--header-insertion-decorators=0"))))

		  (setq eldoc-echo-area-use-multiline-p 1)

`

I have this config which causes the minibuffer to occupy 1 line at all times only. However, by default, the function signature is shown there when point is over the function. I would like there to be shown the clangd errors, which right now I can only discover by hovering with the mouse over it. How can I change that?

You should configure eldoc-documentation-functions in eglot-managed-mode-hook, adding in flymake-eldoc-function as one of its elements. I'm looking into exactly your problem and trying to change the default value, but it's not so simple because reasons.
