OmniPascal: Auto-Implementation of methods not working

[Der schöne Günther 316]

OmniPascal appears to be having auto-completion since 2015:

 

However, this option does not exist for me - There is no quick fix available:

 

Any idea what I might be missing? Code completion is working fine, by the way.

Update: Turns out the file must be saved to disk first, then it's working.

Perhaps file an issue here: https://bitbucket.org/Wosi/omnipascalissues/issues

Perhaps I should, yes. But I am not sure if @Wosi is still maintaining OmniPascal and I don't knonw yet if I overlooked something or if it's a bug.

No idea if this is true or not, but last I heard (don't remember where I heard this) he was working for embarcadero on their LSP.

In the meantime, I have found out that the file needs to be saved to disk for auto-implementation to work. I was not aware of that. 🤦‍♂️

 

It's the first time I'm using Omni Pascal beyond for actual compiling/running unit tests. So far, I had only used it as a simple editor to write code, then copied it back into Delphi.

In that case, my laudable applauds!

 

Saw the issue "SmartPascal - OmniPascal".

I have an old bad conscience where i got Mr. Budde to start implementing a VC LSP for SmartPascal (w/o the RTl-ish stuff). The project never kicked off (mostly because of my neglect).

But it would be an absolute BOON if Emba + Wosi would author [VC] LSPs for both Delpi/Freepascal.

And if the SMS team would have an interest, they could do VC by plugging into Delphi LSP. But they want to sell their IDE + RTL-ish stuff.

I very much doubt embarcadero would have any interest in doing anything for freepascal - as for VSCode - they have their hands full just getting LSP to work properly for the delphi IDE (it's a work in progress right now).
