cfscript Code Assist in CFBuilder - eclipse

I'm increasingly using cfscript, and like it where appropriately used.
One problem is that there doesn't appear to be any code assist for cfscript in CF Builder, so I find myself writing the tag of a function to leverage the code Assist, then converting to cfscript (which is silly).
For example:
addParam() is the cfscript equivalent of <cfqueryparam >. I get code assist when writing the the tag version, but not the script equivalent.
Does anyone know if there is a code assist library available for cfscript in cfBuilder? Or is this just a downside of working with cfscript?
Many Thanks in advance!

Your example is not using native CFScript, it's using the hack-solution Adobe provided for some shortcomings of CFScript's coverage of CF tags, which are implemented as a bunch of CFCs in the custom tags dir of your install. This stuff is not representative of CFML & its CFScript support as a whole.
I find that CFB gives hinting for most native functionality... is this not the case for you? What if you try listAppend() for example? Do you get code-assist for that?
UPDATE
I wonder if you get a warning in CFB on your line equivalent to this:
o = new Query();
? I do, by default. I have to make a link to the CustomTags/com dir, and then use this syntax:
o = new com.adobe.Query();
Then I don't get a warning, and indeed I get the code assist you're expecting. I cannot get it to give me hinting on just the non-qualified path to Query.cfc though.
Not ideal. Or maybe I'm missing something, too.

There is a way to use lsp4e for calling language server methods directly?

I'm new to the lsp4e & lsp technologies and as far as I have seen the framework provides almost everything for working with eclipse. However there is a way to use this features at will? i.e I would like to use the LS to get all the functions on a file, I think this will be done with textDocument/documentSymbol but how can I get this using the lsp4e framework?
NOTE:
I checked for SymbolKind and seems it was not the one I was looking for however that input helped me finding a sample of DocumentSymbol
DocumentSymbolParams params = new DocumentSymbolParams(
new TextDocumentIdentifier(documentUri.toString()));
CompletableFuture<List<Either<SymbolInformation, DocumentSymbol>>> symbols =
languageServer.getTextDocumentService().documentSymbol(params);

Sparx Enterprise Architect DocumentGenerator does not honour TaggedValues on Stereotype or values from SetProjectConstants and ReplaceField

maybe someone can help me on this. I am trying to generate a document via the DocumentGenerator interface. All in all this works well, except that the DocumentGenerator does not replace the Report Constants with actual values (which are defined on the report package stereotype.
This is the general flow of the document creation code (which generally works):
var gen = Repository.CreateDocumentGenerator();
gen.SetProjectConstant("ReportName", "My Project");
gen.NewDocument(string.Empty);
gen.ReplaceField("ReportName", "My Project");
gen.InsertCoverPageDocument(tags[REPORT_COVERPAGE]);
gen.InsertBreak(DocumentBreak.breakPage);
gen.InsertTOCDocument(tags[REPORT_TOC]);
gen.InsertBreak(DocumentBreak.breakPage);
gen.DocumentPackage((int)nativeId, 0, template);
gen.SaveDocument(fileName, DocumentType.dtDOCX);
I tried ReplaceField and SetProjectConstant both and one at a time before and after calls to NewDocument/InsertCoverPageDocument:
Strangely there is one constant that is being replaced: ReportSummary.
When I run the document generator via "F8" all constants are being replaced correctly.
Other project constants are being replaced correctly.
I can reproduce the behaviour on EA v14.1.1429 and v12.0.1215.
Does someone have a hint for further troubleshooting? Thanks in advance!
========== UPDATE ==========
When I use ReplaceField at the end (before the actual call to SaveDocument the following Report Constants get replaced: {ReportTitle} and {ReportName}
I discovered some workaround: when I manually remove the predefined {Report~} constants from the template and re-add them as Project Constants, their values get replaced correctly.
I will examine this further and give an update as
I did some further investigation on this and came to the following conclusion and workaround (as I have received no comments or answers on this):
I deleted all references to ReportConstants in my EA templates and replaced them by ProjectConstants with the same name.
In my code where I want to generate the documentation I (re)set all ProjectConstants with the actual values via SetProjectConstant and additionally added a call to ReplaceField to replace the constants with the actual values.
The previous mentioned calls are inserted directly before the call to SaveDocument document.
tags.ForEach(t =>
{
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(t.Key)) return;
generator.SetProjectConstant(t.Key, t.Value);
generator.ReplaceField(t.Key, t.Value);
});
generator.SaveDocument(fileName, DocumentType.dtDOCX);
If someone comes up with a better resonse or explanation for the behaviour I am happy to accept this as answer.
I have also found that when you call ReplaceField on these project constants in a CoverPage template, the formatting defined in the template is overwritten. It seems that some of the SetProjectConstant calls actually set the values as you would expect, and the rest do not.. hence the need to call both sets of APIs.

Autocomplete in wxpython if load from xrc

I am trying to work with xrc resource in wxpython.
It is good but where is one big "no" - there is no autocomplete of wxFrame class loadet from xrc. And other loaded from xrc classes too.
Is this right or I'am doing somthing wgong?
here is the part of code for example:
import wx
from wx import xrc
class MyApp(wx.App):
def OnInit(self):
if os.path.exists("phc.xrc"):
self.res = xrc.XmlResource("phc.xrc")
self.frame = self.res.LoadFrame(None, 'MyFrame')
self.list_box = xrc.XRCCTRL(self.frame, "list_box_1")
self.notebook = xrc.XRCCTRL(self.frame, "Notebook")
self.StatusBar= xrc.XRCCTRL(self.frame, "MFrame_statusbar")
self.list_ctrl= xrc.XRCCTRL(self.frame, "list_ctr_1")
Well, how good the autocomplete function is depends entirely on the editor/IDE that you are using. You didn't specify what you are using to write python scripts, but from personal experience I would say that it is probably true, that there is no autocomplete.
I've used Eclipse/PyDev, Spyder, SPE and PyCharm in the past and they all did not show an ability to autocomplete widgets created with XRC. You could still try to get the Emacs autocomplete for Python to work and try it there, but I doubt it'll work.
I did not find this a particular hindrance, but everyone's different, I guess. Hopefully, that answers your question.
Yes autocomplete wouldn't work here since our code doesn't know what the xrc is going to return. Your code gets to know about the type of variable (in this case, frame) only during runtime.
And, unfortunately/fortunately, we cannot assign 'type' to a variable in Python for the autocompletion to work.
But in Eclipse + PyDev plugin
you can add this statement for autocomplete to work:
assert isinstance(self.frame, wx.Frame)
autocomplete works after this statement.

HTML form to invoke XQuery files

We have quite a number of .xqy files in several folders.
Sometimes, I need to invoke an .xqy file (via Marklogic's CQ) to test if it's working.
But I find it rather cumbersome to have to know what parameters to pass in and specify them in the xquery in CQ.
Is there a tool out there that would generate an HTML form that presents to me the parameters of a given .XQY file and invokes it when I press a "submit" button ?
If there is none out there, would somebody here know of how to make such an HTML form ? Right now, I can't seem to find any readily-available xdmp or xquery commands to tell me if an .XQY file is invocable or what parameters it expects to be fed.
Danny
The XQuery standard doesn't support introspection, nor does MarkLogic provide any functions that help with that. The closest you can get with this is using the XQDoc documentation code that is capable of parsing the XQuery code itself and producing descriptions of all function signatures within modules.
You can find more details about it here: http://developer.marklogic.com/code/xqdoc-ws
It doesn't provide a 'Submit' button, but using the XML output of xqdoc, you could make that yourself..
Good luck!
Another option would be to convert your XQuery to XQueryX and you can then process this as XML using XQuery (or XSLT) to generate an XForm or XHTML Form.
Since Danny mentioned unit testing, I'll risk plugging my own framework for that: https://github.com/mblakele/xqut
I usually run XQUT test suites in a cq buffer, but it would be easy enough to wrap one in a simple web page - with or without a form.

Query with toLocalizedTime in Plone

I'm using toLocalizedTime to output a date, as below
<span tal:content="python:here.toLocalisedTime(date.get('start_date'))"/>
This outputs eg. 2007/08/02, I'm just curious as to how one would alter the output so that it reads 02/08/2007
I'm not having much luck finding much info on toLocalizedTime, would someone point me in the right direction?
This depends on whether you have English selected as the site language (Site Setup >> Language). If so, then the default settings are used. You can change the defaults by dropping down into the ZMI, then into 'portal_properties', then 'site_properties'. The fields to change are either 'localTimeFormat' or 'localLongTimeFormat' depending on whether you pass in 'long_format=1' to the toLocalisedTime function.
If on the other hand, you have translations set up, the format may instead be pulled from the translation file for the locale selected. I'm not sure what is the easy way to change the format in this case (other than switching the site back to English). I guess you can register your own translation file but I've never needed to do that so you're going to have to look up the details.
Date string formatting follows the Python rules (http://docs.python.org/library/time.html#time.strftime).
Perhaps even more detail than you need:
here.toLocalizedTime()
is defined in the plone browser view at...
CMFPlone/browser/ploneview.py
which looks up the 'translation_service' utility, to call its 'ulocalized_time' function, defined at...
CMFPlone/TranslationServiceTool.py
which itself calls the 'ulocalized_time' function defined at...
CMFPlone/i18nl10n.py
As always, you can learn interesting things by grepping the source code ;-)
For an up to date answer for Plone 4.3 (after going through the source code)
These fields are now in the registry found at:
http://localhost:8080/yoursite/portal_registry
Then filter on "i18nl10n", which should give you the 4 fields you need to change.
