Partly... I was aware there is no support in Lazarus for something like  
this.



Some contra's:
1.) Lazarus IDE doesn't have an API for that. I don't think anybody has  
time/will to make it - it could be pretty/unnecessarily complex to  
support it in every IDE dialog.
2.) No Lazarus function is called this way. It doesn't make sense if  
Code Creation is the only function taking advantage of it.
3.) I don't know any desktop application that works like this (except  
the TotalCommander mouse right click).


(1) is already a reason big enough for me.


Indeed.

I implemented "class code creation" in r51851. I was already tired of 
creating/copying object variables by hand. The idea is the same as with code creation 
(ctrl+shift+c), but the variable is created in one of the class section:

It is the first version, it probably will need some tuning, so please give 
feedback.

+1

The less interactive should do a common completion, the more
interactive shows a dialog to choose. This is easy to remember and can
be used for future completions.
For example the interactive completion on a property could give
options to add Getter, Setter or add code for an array property.

Btw. do you really think that the dialog is so frustrating? You can 
apply it by just one Enter press. I personally like to know where the 
things are put. An alternative "no-dialog" shortcut is easy to make, but 
I still don't know if yet another shortcut brings really some 
simplification. Formerly, there was 1 shortcut for CodeCreation, now 
there are 2, do you really want 3 for the same function?

Actually this is already done, ctrl+shift+c is the less interactive 
(therefore it doesn't offer the class option). ctrl+shift+x is the more 
interactive with more options. To reduce confusion I can enhance the 
dialog with a local/class target combobox - people could than map the 
more interactive shortcut to ctrl+shift+c and use only one shortcut for 
both class/local target if they want. What do you think?


If I create a special shortcut for every option of CodeCreation, they

Then these short-cuts must follow a general rule or it just gets overwhelming.
For example always 'alt' as additional key:
ctrl-shift-x -> ctrl-shift-alt-x
ctrl-shift-space -> ctrl-shift-alt-space
etc.

(btw those are some ugly short-cuts)

> Or a flag button (e.g. speedbutton) to enable/disable the interactivity.
Which must be easy to enable and disable by keyboard and even then it's a 
hassle if you have to switch it often.
 
I like Jesus' idea the most.
The same short-cut for the same function is very consistent.
It is a well known UI concept.
Switching IDEs often it is always better for me to have to memorize less and 
not more short-cuts.
Lazarus already has quite a lot of keyboard-short-cuts.
You could also implement a keyboard-short-cut 'double click' to get to the 
dialog and 'single click' to complete directly (or the other way round) but I 
like the 
'long click' more and this would most likely be also deemed confusing.

No, this kind of behaviour is very confusing. Then better 2 shortcut keys:

[Lazarus] Ann: class code creation

2016-03-07 Thread Ondrej Pokorny
I implemented "class code creation" in r51851. I was already tired of 
creating/copying object variables by hand. The idea is the same as with 
code creation (ctrl+shift+c), but the variable is created in one of the 
class section:


unit Unit1;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

interface

type
  TClass = class
  private
procedure Test(y: integer);
  end;

implementation

{ TClass }

procedure TClass.Test(y: integer);
begin
  x| := y;
end;

end.

Hit Ctrl+Shift+X on the undeclared variable x and you get a dialog:



Select the section and voila, x is declared as private variable:

unit Unit1;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

interface

type
  TClass = class
  private
x: Integer;
procedure Test(y: integer);
  end;

implementation

{ TClass }

procedure TClass.Test(y: integer);
begin
  x := y;
end;

end.

It is the first version, it probably will need some tuning, so please 
give feedback.
