Re: Content Assist (Ctl/Space) Field text

Yes, you need to refresh the outline in order for content-assist to know about it.

Am I mistaken in my understanding about content assist? I think that if you
add a new variable for instance (in the D specs), I have to refresh the
outline in order for WDSC to find that variable later when I want to use
content assist. Is this correct, or am I doing something wrong?

Charles;

I think the content assist is a fantastic tool and I can't even imagine not
using it anymore. All I was looking for was if anyone else would like to
see
further enhancements to it and what they would like them to be. Granted if
we ever see those enhancements is another thing but I thought it would be
of
interest to the list.

I was not even thinking of comparing WDSc to SEU in this thread.

Thanks
Andy

I agree that there's plenty of room for improvement in context assist.

But the color coding, outline view, 48+ lines of code, scrolling via
the mouse wheel, and unlimited undo/redo all make WDSc and it's
successors more productive than SEU ever dreamed of.

I'll echo everything said for content assist with names and
descriptions. Lack of good content assist, and speed of execution, are
what is stopping me from using WDSc 7.x & RDp and keeps me in SEU.

And until those are tackled, I'll happily stay with SEU and use
free-form RPG. ( I get my indenting from
http://jplamontre.free.fr/AS400/INDENT.htm ) And with SEU being faster
on my old work PC leaves me pining for the promised productivity heard
on the list. I don't want a flame war, but without GREAT content
assist, we late-adopters will continue to be non-adopters.)
