Hi list,
Initially I posted this message in general list, where I was suggested to use this list instead.
This is the link to initial message:
messageIt was confirmed that pgAdmin uses Scintilla which has interface for calltip and auto-complete functions defined in:
scintilla\src\CallTip.h
scintilla\src\AutoComplete.h
with simple implementation described in
scintilla\doc\ScintillaUsage.html
or full in SciTE editor.
As implemented in SciTE these controls are evoked only if user provides calltip and auto-completion definitions (through *.api files) and user defines triggers for each action.
These can be seen as helpers at least in these scenarios:
- novice user learning SQL or PL/pgSQL
- user learning PostgreSQL extension, like PostGIS
- user manages own function
I attached screenshots of these suggestions as they appear in SciTE.
