Add Function to String Member List

Hi Janet,

Check out the "SyntaxEditor .NET Languages Add-on Guide / Member List Pre-Filtering" documentation topic. That is the mechanism you can use to add/remove items before the member list gets displayed.

Cool, thanks. It might be nice to document what the ImageIndexes are for the IntelliPromptMemberListItem constructor. I can't find where it tells me what image index equates to which type icon

Here's the code in case anyone else is interested down the road...
(watch for line wrapping...)
-------------------------------------------------

AddHandler language.SyntaxEditorIntelliPromptMemberListPreFilter, AddressOf AddIntellisenseMethods

------------

Private Sub AddIntellisenseMethods(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.IntelliPromptMemberListPreFilterEventArgs)

Dim c As ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.Addons.VB.VBContext
Dim i As ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.IntelliPromptMemberListItem
Dim StartingObject As String = ""

Try
If Not (e Is Nothing) Then
If Not (e.Context Is Nothing) Then
If TypeOf (e.Context) Is ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.Addons.VB.VBContext Then

c = CType(e.Context, ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.Addons.VB.VBContext)

If Not (c.Items Is Nothing) Then
If c.Items.GetUpperBound(0) > 0 Then
' Look for the beginning object I care about, for instance, ObjX.ItemId
' Where ObjX is a valid Alias, I want to add my IsNull method...
' You may want to look at ItemId whereas that would be c.Items(1) below.
StartingObject = c.Items(0).Text

If Not (StartingObject Is Nothing) Then
If Not (m_Aliases.Item(StartingObject) Is Nothing) Then
i = New ActiproSoftware.SyntaxEditor.IntelliPromptMemberListItem("IsNull", -1, "Boolean. If the original underlying data was Null or Nothing")

If Not (e.Items Is Nothing) Then
If e.Items("IsNull") Is Nothing Then
e.Items.Add("IsNull", i)
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
Catch ex As Exception
' Couldn't add it, but it's just intellisense
' so don't blow up the app over it...
End Try

End Sub

Hi Janet,

Check out the "Using the Reflection ImageList" section in the "Member List" documentation topic. That talks about it.
