Code Completion for User-Defined Objects

Hello,

When I have a user-defined JScript object in my test script (or in an external file that’s accessed via USEUNIT), I can’t figure out how to get code completion and “go to declaration” to work on methods defined on that object.

 

For example, consider the following code:

 

var MyObject = {

  method1: function (){

  }

}

 

function function1() {

 

}

 

function main() {

  function1();

  MyObject.method1();

}

 

Code completion (ctrl-space) will complete the function name function1, but will not complete the name method1. Also, ctrl-click on the call to function1 will take me to the declaration of function1, but will not take me to the declaration of method1.

 

Is there a way to cause this to work? My apologies if there’s already a topic on this, but I couldn’t find it.

 

Thanks!

Paul

    Hi Paul, unfortuately this cannot be done as the Test Complete JScript Parser simply cannot do it, as per the official response in this thread

    That's unfortunate. I'm going to respond to the link you provided to get another +1 on the feature.



    Thanks for your quick response!
