- Show function call for local functions as tip, just like the
predefined.
I don't understand this - I assume you mean calltips. But local/ workspace tags and global tags should both get calltips, as long as
the
TagManager language parser supports them.
I use Geany primarily for scripting languages like PHP and Bash. If I define a function like:
function($a_array, $s_string = "default") {
I'd like to be 'calltipped' of the parameters when I use this function elsewhere in my code. I don't know the technical solution for this, but I know I only get that help with the predefined php functions...
Currently the PHP global tags file wasn't generated by Geany, so that's why it has calltip info. Many of the tagmanager/ctags lexers don't support calltips - only C-like languages at the moment. I think we can add calltip support for all languages that use function_name(arguments) style syntax, so I'll add this to the TODO list. Having said that, it is a lot of work to test once implemented and iron out any important bugs.
