Code Completion Demo

Folder: Demos\CompletionProposalDemo. Projects: CompletionProposalDemo.dpr and ParamCompletionDemo.dpr.

Shows the use of TSynCompletionProposal in its two modes.

Code list (ctCode)

The form FormMain_ctCode fills the list with the members of a class, with an image, the kind of member in a column and the name in bold, and lets you change at run time the options of the popup: title, number of lines, shadow, gripper and the width of the biggest word.

The items use the formatting codes of the proposal:

Code	Effect
\image{n}	Shows the image number n of the Images list.
\hspace{n}	A horizontal space of n pixels.
\column{}	Starts the next column.
\style{+B} ... \style{-B}	Turns on and off the bold style (also I, U).

SynCompletionProposal1.ItemList.Add(
  '\image{4}\hspace{2}procedure \column{}\style{+B}Delete\style{-B}(Index: Integer)');

Parameter hints (ctParams)

The form FormMain_ctParams (project ParamCompletionDemo) shows the parameters of a routine while they are typed. In the OnExecute event the list is filled with one item for each overload, written as a sequence of quoted parameters:

TSynCompletionProposal(Sender).ItemList.Add('"A: integer", "B: integer"');

The folder contains also two screenshots of the proposal and the page tsyncompletionproposal.html with the original description of the component.
