In my (JScript) test scripts would like to use objects in this way (which runs fine in TestComplete) to e.g. for namespacing.var MyFunnyClass = { Alert: function( time, message) { alert(); }};MyFunnyClass.Alert();However the editor intellisense and navigation (Ctrl-click on method) does not work with this. Is there any plans to make it work or any workarounds I could use?BR, David

No worries! I actually found the solution I was looking for here: https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/scripting/calling-routines/declared-in-another-unit/from-gui.html#GUI Seems like a good way to import functions from a "Library" script, and it allows you to see those functions with Code Completion. -Riley

Hi David, The reason why TestComplete does not perform navigation to the function's declaration is that TestComplete's parser currently does not support routines declared in this way. However, we have an appropriate suggestion in our DB, and your request has increased its rating. Thanks. BTW, despite this, the code should be executed fine (one note, TestComplete doesn't support IE's alert function).

I would like to have the intellisense/code completion working for declared objects in VBScript too.Could you increase the rating of that suggestion on my behalf?Thanks.

Hi Christian, I've added your vote. Thanks!

Please add my vote for this capability on JScript.

    Tanya was referring to the database where our requests are tracked, not a workaround.

Hi, can you please add my vote to this as well.

It will be greatt if his can be implemented, it becomes difficult when you have a lot of cusotm classes and you quickly want to see the declaratin of the methods in them.

Please add my vote too. I see this post has been opened for 2 years so I suspect this might not be a high priority! perhaps some more votes will help.
