Server-Side Objects and Script Outlines

Spider Writer Suggestions and Support Forum

The latest build of this product (v5.2.0) was released 23 years ago, which was before this thread was created.

Until recently I was using that inferior Interdev <IMG SRC="mad.gif" border="0"> product for all my frontend development work. There are only 2 things that I really miss:-

1. Would it be possible for you to add IntelliPrompt for Server-side objects. I know I can add TypeLibrary references to the Script Outline window but it's not as slick as InelliPrompt.

2. The Interdev Script Outline window lists out all elements in my code that have a name or ID attribute. This is just soooo handy when working with long scripts. It means I can (could) click on a function name or a Table name in the Script Outline window and the editor window would jump to that element. The HTML Outline window is similar feature that would look great in SpiderWriter. <IMG SRC="cool.gif" border="0">


After using SpiderWriter for a while now, I couldn't go back to Interdev but these two (Ok, three) enhancements would be the icing on the cake. <IMG SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Thanks for the suggestions. Those are both things we'd like to have in the application as well. However with the single-threaded nature of Visual Basic (which is what Spider Writer is written in), I'm not so sure we can implement them. You really need multiple task threads to handle those sorts of features.
