Wow, damm it's the second thing that I discover that what I think I know, and what actually there are wrong.

Hello,
Is there a shortcut in Lazarus's editor for Adding all of the methods

No. There is already a feature request.
Also, Is there a way to tell Lazarus to foreword the parent methods
and property for the child's declaration ?
Can you give an example?
TParent = class
private
FBar : String;
FBaz : integer;
public
procedure Foo;
property Bar : String read FBar; write FBar;
published
property Baz : Integer read FBaz write FBaz
end;
TChild = class(TParent) // Let's say CTRL+SHIFT+C for example
public
property Bar; //Foreword from CTRL+SHIFT+C for example
published
property Baz; // ...
end;
The above has no effect.
What do you want to achieve?
That rather constantly doing copy paste of original properties and
even methods to foreword to a new class, there will be a tool for
that.
With my Redis client, I have a basic class that contain such
properties, and few classes that inherits them, and require to have
the properties inside.
It would be nice, but not a real demand to have such support.
The CTRL+SHIFT+C is the tool for the job imho, because it completes
code declarations, but as you discover, it does not do that at the
time.
I think that part of the interface inheritance feature that will or
might be designed, it should support also this.
I still don't see the point.
The properties have the same visibility, type, getters and setters.
I could understand the demand for a tool doing the opposite: to clean up
such duplicate properties.
Or a tool to raise the visibility of inherited properties.
In my knowledge in Pascal, if the child does not pass the parent
properties, then they are not visible in the child.
For example in the RTTI you will not see the published property
because it was not foreword to the child.
No, this is wrong. A class always inherits the properties of its parent.
The following example prints "42":
=== example begin ===
program test;
{$mode objfpc}
{$apptype console}
uses
typinfo;
type
{$TYPEINFO ON}
TTest = class
private
fFoo: LongInt;
published
property Foo: LongInt read fFoo write fFoo;
end;
{$TYPEINFO OFF}
TTestChild = class(TTest)
end;
var
t: TTestChild;
begin
t := TTestChild.Create;
t.Foo := 42;
Writeln(GetOrdProp(t, 'Foo'));
end.
=== example end ===
So your suggested tool is basically useless.
You only need to write "property Foo;" in a child class if you want to
increase the visibility of the property (e.g. from protected to public
or published)

Sven
