Better CallTip support from JSdocs?

Posted by templarian on 2009-03-12 13:28

I had someone submit this bug a long time ago to see if the calltip could be improved. It was submitted for PHP, but now that I look at JS it seems the same. Does anyone know if there has been any progress in Komodo?

(it's a little weak in JS also for user defined functions. It looks like it could easily do it for JS just no one finished coding it in)

Thanks.

There has been no implementation progress made on this, but we have been discussing and planning on the approach to the problem.

We plan to replace the calltip handling in Komodo, moving from a Scintilla implementation to a Mozilla/XUL implementation, and whilst this feature is not strictly dependent upon this change, it does git in nicely with that change.

As long as it's in the back of your guys mind.

Thanks. :)
