Delphi Code-Insight problems

[Celso Henrique 8]

Can someone explain to me why you ruined Code Insight? I was very satisfied with this feature in the Tokyo version, but now, in Sydney, it has stopped working!

 

I can no longer see the properties, procedures or functions of a simple StringList!!!

CodeInsight was radically changed with the implemention of a Language Server Protocol host as the default Code Insight provider.

You can change this in:  Tools->Options->User Interface->Editor->Source->Code Insight

You are able to switch back to "Delphi (Classic Code Insight)"  

 

I assume you are on an early version of 10.4 Sydney.  The latest version 10.4 Sydney Update 1 and Patch #1 provide major improvements to Code Insight.  You can see a list of recent updates here: https://github.com/ideasawakened/DelphiKB/wiki/Delphi-Master-Release-List

 

I suggest you update to 10.4.1 and then apply latest patches as Code Insight is much better.

Unfortunately it is still lousy. That's why I use CnPack

I am using version 10.4.1 and I am using the "Classic Code Insight".

 

I tried a lot of different settings before post the message.

Sorry to hear that... the classic is supposed to be backwards compatible with the prior version.  I would recommend opening an issue on the quality portal.

the problems is in use :  "class ..." for this task!

try dont use it (FOR WHILE Embarcadero dont fix it) when creating your procedure! later... put it!

Unbelievable!!! I could swear that you were kidding, but no, this is true!!!

 

Thanks @emailx45, but the procedures are created by function "Complete Class at Cursor (Shift + Ctrl + C)". Remove this every time will decrease my productivity, for sure!

not problem! as the "developer" know it, just "{class} procedure ProcessarMapas;" on "Implementation" secction solve all!

later:  "class procedure ProcessarMapas;"  remove "{ }"!

Unbelievable(2)!!!

 

Now I have to change my code pattern to avoid mistakes from Embarcadero developers.

You should also consider to enter a QP ticket for this. I believe for this case there is no ticket yet.

[Der schöne Günther 316]

There is.

Reasonable pricing 🙂 And reasonable discounts for longtime customers (subscriptors)

 

We also created some tickets about the new LSP, and i really really wonder how the tested the new LSP,  so many bugs in it what makes it unusable, and then if you switch back to thel old code insight, all the bugs are still there.

it's a shame.

Um, for me, it's crap

[balabuev 102]

New LSP is unusable, and even old Code Insight is broken! New bugs in code editor were introduced. And they call 10.4.1 release - a quality release (WTF?)!

[Stano 143]

The update to version 10.4.2 will help in part

How ?

[Stano 143]

I'm so sorry. I made a mistake I have 10.4.1. I've already been notified.

It looks like to me that they didn't any test. We are the Embarcadero testers, for free.

For free? Oh no, I am paying for it! 🙂

[Lars Fosdal 1792]

Millions of lines of code keep me tethered to Delphi.

My employer is paying for it, but the lack of viable alternatives keeps us here, bugs or not.

 

Yet, I predict there is .NET projects eating into my schedule in my near future.

I.e. a fresh, new set of bugs to learn to work around.
