Hi,
2 feature requests:
First:
The following has been bugging me since day 1 of Lazarus:
Code completion for methods works from interface -> implementation.
However, in Delphi, the following also works:
Given the form declaration:
TForm1 = class(TForm)
private
{ private declarations }
public
{ public declarations }
end;
I can type the following in the implementation section:
Procedure TForm1.DoSomething;
begin
end;
I can place the cursor anywhere in the DoSomething method, and press
Ctrl-Shift-C. The IDE then places
Procedure DoSomething;
In the form declaration (in the private section).
This does not work in Lazarus. Could this be added ?
In practice in Delphi, I use this method infinitely more often than
the Interface -> implementation way; I really miss this.
Second:
if you add the 'Gexperts' to the Delphi IDE (highly recommended) then
'ALT Gr'-Arrow Up or
'ALT Gr'-Arrow Down ('Alt Gr' is the right Alt key) moves to the
previous/next occurrence
of the word/identifier you are standing on.
This is also something which I would like to see in the Lazarus IDE,
as I also use this quite a lot.
Aswering the subject: Both are missing.
ehm.... I would't define the first as missing, since we both agreed that
it was not wanted in some cases, and that the delphi behaviour was anoying
on this.
??
On the contrary, it's very much wanted, I don't see how it can be
annoying??
Annoying when you are adding and removing methods in the class definition.
You have just removed some and want to complete the new ones.....
...poof, there are the removed ones again (and you won't notice since the
editor jumps to the implementation section, so you can go up again, remove
etc...)
Ah, this one, yes I know this problem :-)
At best, make it an option, if you really think it's annoying :-)
I think completion when you're in the implementation section is OK in this
case.
I think this behaviour lends itself to configuration:
Method code completion:
(*) Only add current method to class declaration
( ) Add all undeclared methods when cursor in implementation section.
( ) Always add all missing declarations
But that is if you want it really fancy... I'd already be happy if the first
one is implemented...
Michael.
