SciTE Ctrl-J

[roach4411]

If you are on a line that has a function call, Ctrl-J bookmarks the line and jumps to the beginning of the function. This works great if the function is in the same file but I was wondering if there is any way to jump back from a function that is #included in a different file?

Thanks,

Click on the tab of the source file and hit F2

Does anyone know what it would take to implement this feature? I'd be willing to do it, but I need to be pointed in the right direction...

Just wondering what you are thinking of here?

The way it currently works is that the line you do the Ctrl+J on is Bookmarked and then the Func is searched...first in the script and then the #included files.

F2( jump to bookmark) jumps to the "next" bookmark in the same file ... would you want it to jump to the next bookmark in any openfile or assign a new shortkey to jump back ?

Just thinking out loud here ...

Thanks for the quick response Jos. I'd like to be able to jump back to the to the function call not the next bookmark. The idea is to be able to get a quick look at the function, it's parameters and it's implementation and then jump back to the Function call. As and example, Vim does this with Ctrl-] and Ctrl-T.

Thanks,

A multilevel jump-back is implemented in the current Beta version of SciTE4AutoIt3.

Ctrl+J will Jump to the appropriate Func definition and Ctrl+Shift+J will jump back to the previous location.

A multilevel jump-back is implemented in the current Beta version of SciTE4AutoIt3.

Thanks for that one

Btw, "Jump to func" have one issue:

_MyFunc1(_MyFunc2())

Func _MyFunc1($Param)
    
EndFunc

Func _MyFunc2()
    
EndFunc

Just put the cursor to the begining of _MyFunc2() (inside _MyFunc1()), and press Ctrl+J, the console show this error:

C:\PROGRA~1\AutoIt3\SciTE\AutoIt3.lua:377: unfinished capture
>Lua: error occurred while processing command

Is this way it should be?

P.S

If you select the function name, or set spaces between the brakets, the jump performed correctly

Added the last line in this block of code in file AutoItGotoDefinition.Lua at line 54 will fix that issue:

function AutoItGotoDefinition:GotoDefinition(version)
    -- Get the current word.
    local func = self:GetWord()
    func = func:gsub("%(","")

Actually, Jos, that's not the fix. The fix is to stop it at it's source, which is in Common:GetWord(). Notice the "true" parameter in WordStartPosition()/WordEndPosition(), it means only get word characters:

function Common:GetWord()
    -- This pattern checks to see if a string is empty or all whitespace.
    local pattern = "^%s*$"
    -- First, get the selected text.
    local word = editor:GetSelText()
    if word:match(pattern) then
        -- No text was selected, try getting the word where the caret is.
        word = editor:textrange(editor:WordStartPosition(editor.CurrentPos, true),
            editor:WordEndPosition(editor.CurrentPos, true))
        if word:match(pattern) then
            -- No text found anywhere, set as an empty string.
            word = ""
        end
    end
    return word:gsub("^%s*", "")
end -- GetWord()

Updated My LUA function set with your fix .... Thanks

[MrCreatoR]

Added the last line in this block of code in file AutoItGotoDefinition.Lua

Thanks, but i have no such file in my SciTE directory only AutoIt3.lua... but i can't find GotoDefinition function.

[Jos]

These updates are for the current Beta version of SciTE4AutoIt3 which has a whole new set of LUA files in a separate directory called LUA.

Again i must to post in old topic, i didn't wanted to create a new one (which will duplicate this one).

There is few more bugs in the GotoDefinition:

1) After we use Ctrl + J (not the menu item), we can't use it again, there is no reaction after that. The hotkey works again only after we use menu item (Jump to function).

2) GotoDefinition does not take in count the includes pathes that stored in the registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutoIt v3AutoItIncludes), can be set with the Include Manager.

Btw, the 2) issue is also applied to OpenInclude lua function.

1) Works fine for me. Ctrl+J jumps to the next Func, also multiple times, and Shift+Ctrl+J jumps back in the reverse sequence.

2) LUA cannot use the Registry and is using the settings for:

openpath.$(au3)=$(SciteDefaultHome)..include;$(SciteDefaultHome)..priveincludes
openpath.beta.$(au3)=$(SciteDefaultHome)..betainclude;$(SciteDefaultHome)..betapriveincludes
