I'm thinking of creating a VSCode extension to help people use a library I am creating. I've looked in 50 places and can only see documentation on getting the plain text of the document in which the completion suggestions are triggered.
My library exposes a function with two parameters, both objects with the same keys, but the first one will be defined already and the 2nd one will be passed in as an object literal. For example
const obj1 = {a:1, b:2};
doLibraryThing(obj1, {a:[], b:[]});
I want to provide code completion, or a snippet, or anything that can detect that doLibraryThing is being called, and know what properties were defined in obj1, even though usually it will be imported from another file; and then use those properties to generate the suggestion with the same properties, {a:[], b:[]}.
Is this possible?

One person in Stackover Flow gave me a hint about creating a learning page.
Using the list, save the necessary data, id and favorite variables, and call them to the index number.
I was creating a class to implement it.
However, I realized that variables could not be stored in the list...
Is there a way to save it?
And I don't make a separate class, but I'm going to make a list in the file with the following code.
But before, I heard that using global variables makes me stutter and it's bad for memory.
Shall we use "const"?
If not, wouldn't it be a problem how to make the class?
Of course, favorite variables cannot be used because they change from time to time.
const List<Function> fav_1 = [favoriteButton_0_01_01,.....];
Is it okay to use only the const list as a global variable instead of making a class?
Can I put variables in the list? Then, how?
You can only put items with a matching type in the list.
if you define a list like "List" than only functions can be saved there.
if you define a list like "List" than only Integers can be saved there.
using const as a modifier will result in an unmodifiable list and so you won't be able to put anything in there.
I want to create a .png file of a HTML page in angularjs and download it. For this I'm currently using dom-to-image.js and using the domToImage.toBlob function and passing the node element to it. But internally when it goes to dom-to-image.js it throws the error:
node.cloneNode() is not a function
Can anyone please assist me here?
Thanks
This error arises when you attempt to call cloneNode() on anything other than a single DOM node.
In this case, the error is coming from the dom-to-image library, which calls that method internally.
Note that without a code snippet, its hard to identify the precise issue with your code, but the point is, when you call domtoimage.toBlob(), you need to supply a single DOM node.
So double check what you are calling it with. If you are selecting by class, for instance, you could end up with more than one element.
Its best practice to be precise with which node you want to convert to a blob - use the id attribute, like this:
domtoimage.toBlob(document.getElementById('element')).then(...)
where element is the id of your target node.
Its also possible you're selecting with angular.element() or even using jQuery directly.
In both cases, this returns an Object -- which you can't call cloneNode() on.
Also note the following from the Angular docs for angular.element():
Note: All element references in AngularJS are always wrapped with jQuery or jqLite (such as the element argument in a directive's compile / link function). They are never raw DOM references.
Which means you would observe the same behavior in both cases, e.g. both of these:
domtoimage.toBlob($('#element')).then(...)
domtoimage.toBlob(angular.element('#element')).then(...)
would result in the error you see. You can index the Object before supplying it to domtoimage.toBlob(), perhaps like this:
domtoimage.toBlob($('#element')[0]).then(...)
domtoimage.toBlob(angular.element('#element')[0]).then(...)
and that would also work.
Also check out this post about "cloneNode is not a function".
If for example you have acquired a object of type handleplot with expression like below:
handle = plot(t,functoin1 , t , function2 ) ;
Now handle will be an array that contains two elements, handle(1) and handle(2). Now suppose you want to change some properties of one of these objects, like set a LineWidth, change the Color, or the like.
Is there any way in which you can activate auto-completion or suggestions when you type handle(1). (note the memebership operator .)? I am looking for the automatic suggestions that MATLAB provides for member functions in a combobox near the blinking cursor, similar to the way other IDEs provide this feature:
MATLAB's objects support tab completion. After typing handle(1). simply hit tab and you will receive a list of available methods and properties of the graphics object.
If you want more help on a method, you will also get a popup dialog of the method and the accepted input arguments.
If you want to programmatically get a list of properties of an object, you can use properties
properties(t)
If you want a listing of all properties and their values, just use get
get(t)
i use this method ...
for example i'm writing a program in matlab editor and when im want to know the properties of an object just stop coding and run the program , know it's have my object (for example handle) and know i can write the properties(handle) in command window to know the exact properties of handle . as Suever says .
I'm doing some competitions on a website called topcoder.com where the objective is to solve algorithmic problems. I'm using Eclipse for this purpose, and I code in Java, it would be help me to have some predefined templates or macros that I can use for common coding tasks. For example I would like to write methods to be able to find the max value in and int[] array, or the longest sequence in an int[] array, and so on (there should be quite many of these). Note I can't write these methods as libraries because as part of the competition I need to submit everything in one file.
Therefore ideally, I would like to have some shortcut available to generate code both as a method and as a calling statement at once. Any ideas if this is possible?
Sure you can - I think that's a nifty way to auto-insert boilerplate or helper code. To the point of commenters, you probably want to group the code as a helper class, but the general idea sounds good to me:
You can see it listed in your available templates:
Then as you code your solution, you can Control+Space, type the first few characters of the name you gave your template, and you can preview it:
And then you can insert it. Be sure if you use a class structure to position it as an inner class:
Lastly - if you want to have a template inserts a call to method from a template, I think you would just use two templates. One like shown above (to print the helper code) and another that might look like this, which calls a util method and drops the cursor after it (or between the parentheses if you'd like, etc):
MyUtils.myUtilMethod1();${cursor}
This is the problem:
Create a class and set the access to be private for some of the properties or methods.
Use the doc command for the created class. This will auto-generate documentation from your comments and show it in the built-in help browser.
doc classname
The problem is that documentation for the private properties and methods is not shown in the help browser. Is there any way to overcome this problem?
So I spent like 10 minutes using the debugger, jumping from one function to the next, tracing the execution path of a simple doc MyClass call.
Eventually it lead me to the following file:
fullfile(toolboxdir('matlab'),'helptools','+helpUtils','isAccessible.m')
This function is called during the process of generating documentation for a class to determine if the class elements (including methods, properties, and events) are publicly accessible and non-hidden. This information is used later on to "cull" the elements.
So if you are willing to modify MATLAB's internal functions, and you want the docs to always show all methods and properties regardless of their scope, just rewrite the function to say:
function b = isAccessible(classElement, elementKeyword)
b = true;
return
% ... some more code we'll never reach!
end
Of course, don't forget to make a backup of the file in case you changed your mind later :)
(on recent Windows, you'll need to perform this step with administrative privileges)
As a test, take the sample class defined in this page and run doc someClass. The result:
This behaviour is by design - the auto-generated documentation is intended for users of the class, who would only be able to access the public properties and methods.
There's no way that I'm aware of to change this behaviour.
You could try:
Use an alternative system of auto-generating documentation such as this from the MATLAB Central File Exchange (which I believe will document all properties, not just public).
Implement your own doc command. Your doc command should accept exactly the same inputs as the built-in doc command, detect if its inputs correspond to your class/methods/properties etc, and if so display their documentation, otherwise pass its inputs straight through to the built-in doc. Make sure your command is ahead of the built-in on the path.
