I have folding set to use expr. I have a foldexpr that
identifies lines for functions and classes in PHP.
Lines that are part of a function are folded.
Function definition lines are NOT folded.
This gives me a single level of folding that works like
an index to my code. This works great.
Is it possible to have an open fold include a few lines BEFORE the
beginning of the fold? For example, it's common in PHP to have a
phpdoc comment before the function definition.
When all folds are closed I see just a list of function names.
When I open a fold I see the entire body of the function, but
I don't see the comment before the function.
I'm sure I could get the fold expression to work so that it starts the
fold on the comment BEFORE the function definition, but then when I closed
the fold I would not see the function name.
Perhaps I could set the fold to start at the comment before the
function definition and set the 'foldtext' to be the
text of the line with the function definition. I shall mull that over.
In the mean time, if anyone has any suggestions or has already done
this then please let me know.
So when I have all folds closed I see my code like this:
function reverse_zipcode ($zipcode)
+-- 10 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function get_inventory ()
+-- 28 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function delete_inventory ()
+-- 5 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function touch_sql ($sql)
+-- 21 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function see_sql ($sql,$fetch_mode=DB_FETCHMODE_OBJECT)
+-- 20 lines: {-----------------------------------------------------
If I wanted to view "delete_inventory" I would click on the + to open
the fold to see something like this (note how the comment BEFORE
the function is also show):
function reverse_zipcode ($zipcode)
+-- 10 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function get_inventory ()
+-- 28 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
/**
* This deletes unqualified inventory from t_inventory.
* The table "inv_delete" is used to find unqualified inventory
* scheduled for deletion.
* @see function create_inv_delete
*/
function delete_inventory ()
{
$sql = "DELETE inventory FROM inventory, inv_delete WHERE
inventory.inventory_id=inv_delete.inventory_id;";
touch_sql ($sql);
}
function touch_sql ($sql)
+-- 21 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function see_sql ($sql,$fetch_mode=DB_FETCHMODE_OBJECT)
+-- 20 lines: {-----------------------------------------------------
Currently, the best I can do is to show everything below the fold.
This is nice, but the documentation comment remains hidden, like this:
function reverse_zipcode ($zipcode)
+-- 10 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function get_inventory ()
+-- 28 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function delete_inventory ()
{
$sql = "DELETE inventory FROM inventory, inv_delete WHERE
inventory.inventory_id=inv_delete.inventory_id;";
touch_sql ($sql);
}
function touch_sql ($sql)
+-- 21 lines: {----------------------------------------------------
function see_sql ($sql,$fetch_mode=DB_FETCHMODE_OBJECT)
+-- 20 lines: {-----------------------------------------------------
Yours,
